I didn't think to (sorry), but what they depict here is very accurate:

With the 20" though, there are 9 screws on the back. There are two screws at the base of the RFI shield/screen (labeled "metal cover" in the photos) which can be found by gently peeling up the foam tape at the bottom. Also, you'll see two strips of nice quality fabric electrical tape over the two pairs of CCFL connectors on the Inverter board, which can be saved and reused.

When installing the new board, I had better luck plugging in the four CCFL connectors before mounting it to the chassis, then installing the single control connector. That way you have full access to the connectors, and can snap them in very gently. The connectors and their wires are very lightweight, so take your time with them.

When reassembling the display, the back case and grey "cosmetic" inner case must be placed over the front "feet" of the display first, then the top lowered into place. There are small tabs along the bottom front of the display which must be seated into the edge of the back case in order for the front bezel to be flush with the back case.

I did the entire job on a clean towel on the dining table, display face-down. If you need photos, I could certainly open the display again and snap some.
