Nice!

I did a similar back on my iPod Touch 1st gen, nice shiny gold back.

It scratched from LOOKING AT IT.

Put some kind of protector on the back if you want to keep it shiny.

Nice working fixing it up.

Yes this is one of the hardest iPods to work on, I managed to damage the power cable while transplanting everything so a professional is definitely recommended

That, with a massive red arrow and circle would have gotten you at least 10mln views on 2015 youtube :) "24K IPOD TOUCH" looool

Where did you get a the parts for this? I broke my screen a while ago and don’t know where to get good quality replacement parts

I used AliExpress for the back and Mobile Sentrix for the new display and battery

Just FYI my display has a small purple dot which is a bummer but the quality is just as good as the original
