Parts and tools used
Replacement LED strips for Philips 58‑inch backlight
Small precision screwdrivers (good quality)
Suction pads for lifting LCD corners
Fine alcohol dispenser with needle tip for controlled release
Screw organizer and soft material to protect the LCD

Important warnings and pro tips
One centimetre max of alcohol under the LCD — more can leave permanent marks.
Use good screwdrivers — tiny aluminium screws strip easily.
Sides first then top and bottom when removing bezels to avoid damage.
Don’t attempt 75–85 inch alone — 65 inch is the practical solo limit.
If COF cables rip, the TV is likely a write‑off — be extremely gentle.
