    • Use a 1.5mm hex screwdriver to remove the two hex screws on either side of the display (four screws total).

    • If you don't have a 1.5mm hex driver, you can probably get these screws out with a T6 Torx screwdriver. However, if you use a T6 Torx driver you'll be more likely to strip the screws.

Anyone suffering from a broken iBook G3 screen should start with this approach.

There is no need to take ANY of the lower body apart in order to replace the LCD.

Just remove the rear display bezel as per this set of instructions, then find the iFixit instruction set for replacing the LCD.

You'll have a new screen installed in about 8 steps and 10 minutes instead of the 36 steps and 2 hours it takes to remove the hinge assembly of the display first (requiring the lower body disassembly.
