This is a fairly simple camera to take apart, just requiring a little care and patience. Most major components are very straightforward to replace and other components can be accessed quite easily too.
You will need a small cross-head screwdriver, and if you need to remove the sensor this will require a Torx screwdriver. A plastic spudger or opening tool is also useful to have.

Theres a few missing steps. The old LCD screen will need removing from the container that holds it in and the new replacement LCD screen will need to be fitted inside it. Also, there are 2 connections on the LCD ribbon. One goes in as described. On the old screen carefully pull apart the 2nd connection between the screen and the camera. The new LCD screen will then need 2 dabs of solder on the 2nd connection between the new screens ribbon cable and the one within the camera. Its pretty straightforward but the screen will not work without both connectors fitted properly.
My camera was an Panasonic DMC-TZ70, but the difference was not big. The job was easy.
