Need spare parts for your MacBook?

The MacBook laptop is pretty tough but accidents do happen and a repair becomes necessary. Some repairs are easily carried out under warranty or AppleCare (buy yours here) but if your MacBook isn't covered it can get pretty expensive to have a tech fix it for you.

Why not do it yourself? Repairing your MacBook is quite possible if you're careful, take your time, keep track of all the bits and follow instructions. And you've got the necessary parts

Where do you find instructions?

ifixit.com's brilliant Fixit Guide Series walks you gently through the whole process of dis- and re-assembly your MacBook (or iPod or iPhone) with excellent photos and instructions. Even if you don't actually need a repair they're well worth a visit just to see what's actually going on inside your MacBook. If you missed the link, ifixit is here.
