I'm basically looking for an exact replacement of the LCD backlight for a 12.1" dual USB iBook. If anyone has it, or an entire broken LCD but the backlight is still good and you're unwilling to take the backlight out, please email tongt@onid.orst.edu! I know digikey sells backlights, but I already bought two sizes that were closest to the original and they weren't a perfect fit.

Look around there should be some parts dealers... or were they too expensive?

Yeah I know about this site too, but I don't want to pay via Paypal and when I emailed them about an alternative method of payment, I never got a response.

Anyways, I put in a $12 substitute backlight that was a few millimeters shorter and it's still good, just that the bottom corners are slightly dark and there's a bright patch to the right on the bottom.
