    Find out which parts you need and see if it is cost effective to order them and take the whole lot to a specialist shop, I think!

    Be Careful on the Internet! I ran and tackled a drive by mining attack today. It's not designed to do anything than provide fake texts (say!)

    try this shop have used for a few things http://www.replacebase.co.uk/sony-xp...arts-478-c.asp

    Re: Advice on screen repair?

    Cost me £40 to get the back glass replaced via Sony's official repair place on my Z3, would have done it myself but at the time the Z3 was still too new to get replacement parts. That would now seem not to be the case so if the parts are cheap enough I think the screen repair is easy enough to do.
