Thanks a lot for this guide! My daughter wrecked the display on my Macbook Air. I have never done any repairs on a notebook before, but I ordered the new display assembly and the toolkit and went ahead anyways.

When I saw my Macbook Air in pieces before me, I had my doubts that it would ever work again, but placing the last screw and then pressing the power button, it just worked!

Thanks again!

Very helpful - thank you very much. I watched your Youtube video (for a slightly different model) to get an idea of the process, then followed this guide step-by-step for my exact model. Very clear and easy to follow, with great directions and pictures.

Used this excellent and comprehensive guide for early 11” Air along side the video guide for the later 13” Macbook Air to swap out the display on a 2015 11” Macbook Air - All very similar and made a daunting job straight forward - Thanks!
