Do I need to de-solder if I’m just replacing the window glass?

Joseph Morris - Apr 17, 2017

To isaac: no. The exterior glass is separate from the LCD.

g_atki - Jun 28, 2017

Do you recommend the replacent for LCD sold on Ebay?

Heather Miller - Aug 8, 2017

Where did you find the replacement screen? The one I ordered that says it’s for the d5200 is not the same as the one in it or in your pictures.

How do you disconnect the multi-plug that is shown connected in image 4 and disconnected in image five? Does it unclip or slide out?
