How feasible would it be to open the wallstreet display all the way into
the metal housing and take the backlighting from one LCD and move it to
another or alternatively move only the actual LCD display from one metal
housing to another?

The reason for my question is that I just got my hands on a complete 2nd
hand WS display for $95 and while it works fine, the right bottom of the
front case had 2 cracks in the right bottom corner. Also you could see
into the the display along the right side where the back and front meet,
through a 1-2mm opening for 6-9 cms, as the back and front didn't exactly
fit snugly into each other unless you pressed them together. I later
discovered the internal metal housing that holds the LCD was slitghtly
warped and pressed on the back display housing, causing that and the
front to go apart somewhat. Anyway I replaced the front with my old whole
one and now the gap is much smaller, like only 1mm or less. But maybe I
could do better?

One additional reason for opening the metal house, is that I have 2
miscolored spots on the display, that very subtly give a yellowish
coloration cloud like 1 cm in diameter, like there was something on the
actual surface, inside or outside at these 2 positions (most visible at
left side and right bottom corner). While it's probably acceptable I
can't help wondering if opening the metal housing and clean it or
something could help. Any idea what can cause such miscolorations and
whether I could do something about it?

What do you guys think? Is it a great risk opening the metal housing and
move the LCD? Is at all doable? I have taken apart wallstreets about 10
times now, so I know to be very careful and all that. But maybe this is
not enough? I only have 3 tools and I suspect I may need more for the
metal housing.

Any thoughts are welcome.
