Last step
- The last step is to separate the plastic frame from the old Digitizer glass.
- I recommend using a heat gun to heat up the glue and then easily separate the old digitizer.
- You are now ready to put your new digitizer on the plastic frame and assemble the T-100.
- BE VERY careful when applying heat to the plastic, it can easily bend so make sure you keep your heatgun/hairdryer on low heat.

Great guide, however I would make one small addition. In the final instructions just a little warning about keeping the heat very low, similar to a hair dryer and take your time. I discovered the hard way that the plastic bezel has quite a low melt/warp temp and I effectively ruined one of the two I was repairing. Sourcing a new digitizer with bezel or bezel alone is proving to be incredibly challenging.
