@tuner1406 I don't think it would because the paint would not let the light through. If you could find something that light could get through then that would probably work. test on a small part of the apple and shine a flashlight through it.....could try that?
I am going from memory but it seems there was a tacky/sticky substance on the inside of the lid around the apple shaped hole. The apple logo had a lip on the back side that kept it from going through the apple shaped hole in the lid. This lip is what sticks to the inside of the lid....does that make sense?
Yeah I know what you mean, I'm still don't understand how once you remove the logo it can just go back in without more glue and stay there securely? Does it push in quite stiff or something? or does that big white sticker behind it hold it in place? Also was it hard to pull of the first time? It sounds like it's not stuck very well.
It was really easy to take off and it stuck back on very easy as well. Taking it off and putting it back were probably the easiest parts of the job. It was just a very sticky substance almost like semi dried model glue that does not dry completely. No worries on the questions, hope this helps.
You are young you should really find more important issues to champion than my lame Macbook mod. Really, there are people suffering all over the world and you appear to have a strong grasp of smart vs. stupid so maybe you could put that to some good, intelligent work (rather than the intellectually stimulating job of You-tube video reviews). Just my two cents.
Ha ha and still you are obsessed with my "shitty" video and feel the need to continue to comment. Just can't let it go? I remember when I had my first beer.
Wow, you have a great sense of humor to go along with your anger issues that I guess are my imagination. That was sarcasm pointing out that several people said it was a great mod they simply hated my voice. You, on the other hand, dismissed the mod as lame hence the "one for the no pile" sarcasm.
OK SO YOU DID ALL THAT RIGHT???.... But the end result is shite!!!!!!!!! It looks so incredibly stupid and amateur. You wasted your time doing that, it looked much better before.
First off your vert welcome. Secondly wtf is the 'no one pile'? Are you actually that lame.... You have a 'no one pile'? I'm very happy actually and not angry, just astounded at the stupidity of some people in this world. I was just saying that the end result looks actually retarded... Also, listen to these people! They are right. Sort out your fucked up voice...
yeah, um...you may want to read the other comments and come up with something just a bit more original. Not disputing your point just making an observation about your lack of originality. Thanks though.
yeah, the magnet, you need to put it back in place when you put the screen back in place. i have a video showing how to do it. you can check it out if you want.
No, the context of that was if you're going to do something you should follow directions where they exist. As for Apple's happiness...not really my primary focus in life.
Hello poster of Video; Nice MOD. Reminds me of putting a powerbook 180 screen into a Mac Classic years ago. Guts included.
Are you on Methadone or does your voice naturally sound like a baritone William S. Burroughs? Nothing personal; just let me suggest you lay off the Mayonnaise and Milk at lunchtime maybe?
Yes, I'm guessing it will void the warranty. I have had it for a while and was looking into a new on (hoping for a 12" c'mon Apple) so I went ahead and took the chance. If I have any issues though I will still take
it in and try. The worse they can do is talk down to me and be condescending....wait that's normal anyway right? :)
The SVG files came from Wikipedia. You can search for them there. Just look for "yin yang" and "apple logo" on wikipedia. You'll find the svg files and you can process them in Gimp. Hope that helps.
you can get stickers for it instead

where do you get the translucent paper or whatever it is from?

It is transparency paper. If you check any office supply you can find it. Your printer has to support transparency printing though so check that too.
