classic
I finally decided to mod my macbook, and ordered a bit of pre-made cellophane from icolors.ca to replace the white apple logo on the back of the screen with a retro style apple logo.
(Yeah, I’m a filthy mac user at times.)
It was surprisingly easy to get into the mac - there’s two screws deep in the hinge that are awkward to get at, and then the back just pops off with the help of a credit card or similar thin tool. The clips holding the back of the screen on very easily disengage without any fear of breaking them. Well, not much anyway.
Once the back is off, it’s just a matter of carefully removing the white plastic that’s already covering the logo, cutting the cellophane to size and then fitting it to a recess the white plastic is covering. The white plastic can be carefully pressed back down again afterwards, with enough residual adhesive left to keep it there. At least, I hope so.
I love the end result, it was definitely worth spending 20 minutes fighting with the hinge screws. Now I’m keen to find ways to mod my non-apple laptop.
