    Hi guys,

    I'm really needing to change the WiFi connectors on the 17 R4 the little clips have damaged and come away, I'm thinking of taking out the LCD and replacing the whole antenna part that sits behind the screen.

    I have not removed the LCD before but have changed thermal paste, is there a tear down for the LCD.
