Hey monkeys...you can replace the screen and it's not hard at all.

Open up the ipod, disconnect the ribbon cable from the screen, attach the new monitor, put everything back together.

Should be fine after that. Go on google and search ipod inside pictures. The pictures on there alone let you know you can do it. I've done it before for someone.

^ happened to my friend last year, don't think he got it on warranty so he was pissed since it was going to cost him a heap to fix it. Not sure what he did in the end now I come to think about it.

you have to push on teh back off teh case then push a guitar pick/ butter knife into the slot that opens up on teh side then you just pry up and teh back of the case pops off doing it with a guitar pick wont hurt it

If your tricky you can crack open the back and put in colored plactic so you dont have the boring blue all the time. Green is sick
