Well trurle super helped me and I sent my led to him and he fixed it. Yes, I shipped it to him in Japan. No one could do this here in the USA that I could find and if I did it myself it would have been destroyed. Here’s a pic but I will get better ones later. Thank you trurle!

Thanks. Wow, flying cats, good it wasn’t her fault :). Yea I impressed myself as I didn’t think the knife would do it but it did. It’s barely undectectable from the sides too, looks factory still. The glue is needed though as they won’t snap back on. I ended up doing two.

Ok well, wanted to say thanks again to everyone. This forum has been great for those questions no one else would have the answers to. So I did the hammer trick. Used a thin pointed knife and pounded it in the sides and kept prying it apart and finally got it off. The thing was clipped in about 8...

Ok drilling that out did nothing. Hmm. Put it in microwave for 5 min? Lol Here’s the old remote I was able to take apart and paint. Which was easy. Not this new one!

Not sure what it is. It’s plastic. I saw the link posted above to the metal splunger tool but I still think that’s too wide to fit in this gap also the gap is hardly even recess so I think anything I put in the side is just going to make the plastic fold over. These remotes are free and it’s ok...

Thank you. THis remote is just super super thin, where even a knife is too wide to fit into the crack. I'm taking part to paint the top portion of the remote, WHITE. The tv is white, and in a all white kitchen, and I'm helping someone out who's very fussy and wants a white remote like the tv...

I want to take apart a comcast remote. Even after I take the batteries out, there are no screws under the battery cover like on older remotes to take them apart. - Super small seam here around the remote is so thin, a typical splunger tool you can use to take a cell phone apart won't work, as...

I wish that was a piece of plastic or a filter I could just stick ontop of the blue display to change it to green. I know I'm dreaming.

Well, I contacted them, and they want min order of $100 and no guarantee it will work or fit. So, so much for me trying to do this myself. I'm not giving up and one of the members on here will let me send it to him and he can make it work, but he's not in USA and it will take a while.

Very interesting again! So I'm not crazy, it seems that board can be used a few ways. Ok, now I saw this! Exactly what I want... BUT! Looks like this is only C, when I need it to display in F, and it shows 5v, where the blue one on ebay shows 5-25v. I'm using for 12v. Argh, don't think it will...

Wow, that's pretty cool also. Had no idea that was even offered... I'll check that out as well.. So, the image that's displayed/projected on my screen now for the temp is programmed by the circuit board I guess in my current unit?

Another update. I wrote the company again and they tell me the factory led is: 0603 LED light Is that wrong again?

@Turle and others. THANK YOU... So, what the heck did the manufacturer send me above? They said this was where the led's were: Is that for a backup led? Could I disconnect those side leds and put one led in the red circle? Lol. Why on Earth did they say that's where the leds go? And Tthere...

Ok. So. Confused again. As shown abovein my earlier post, the manufacturer sent pics of the circuit board before I ordered this and circled the leds supposedly on this board in red, see above posts. I just took the unit apart and I don’t see any leds on the board? I powered it up and they look...
