Hey, thanks for that heads up. I went by what my G5 was tellin' me. Sorry everyone.

Let me see if I'm reading this correctly.
You are parting out a T-Powerbook as replacement parts, and the parts that come with are everything above and including the hinge?

Recently had the hinges break on a T-Ppowerbook and the lid is a little damaged too.

Yes, this is the whole top half of a 1 Ghz Tibook. It's the LCD screen with the front bezel on it and the rear cover on it. It also includes both good and proper hinges and the sleep light bar with the LCD data cable that connects to the bottom half of the Powerbook.

I may be getting a headless TiBook from my uncle, and I'm just curious. How hard is it to attatch theses two, as in to put a display on the bottom half of a TiBook? Advice or links are welcome, and I'm interested in your offer pending the difficulty of this task.

It's a moderate job to accomplish. It involves the connection of three connectors. Two on one side (sleep light and data cable) and one connector on the other(backlight).

Depending on the model Powerbook your working on, you may have more or less of a job to do (I found working on the DVI models to be easier than the VGA's because the backlight cable is easier to connect since I just take the keyboard off and use a screwdrive to guide the cable wire to it's connection). You need to take the logic board off the bottom case and have the cables go thru the open slots on the bottom half, pull the connectors through, and then just connect them to the logic board.

That's a really good site to see how to work on these machines. Some people say it's difficult, others say it's easy. I would say it's 3 out of 5 on a difficulty scale, but easier if you have the proper tools needed.
