Guide: repairing the backlight of your LCD display

Over at Hackaday I found the link to this interesting guide over at Inventgeek which learns you how you can replace a defective LCD backlight.
LCD Monitors have become very popular with prices coming down, and screen sized growing. Those of us that have used LCD monitors for a while know that over time the backlight starts to dim and will eventually completely fail. Leaving you with some electronic scrap that you could sell on eBay for 35 bucks or so. Well for less than $20.00 and about a half hour of your time you can replace the backlight and rejuvenate that monitor to as good as new condition. So man the surplus scrounging wagon and head out to your local school surplus or eBay!
You can find the guide over here.
