    I’ve fixed a bunch of them, as well as tablets, and I really like the toolkit from iFixit. It’s great as a beginners set.

      Second the iFixit kit.

      Another consideration is some tool to heat up the display or back. iFixit has the iOpener, a silicone “pillow” you heat up in the microwave, which works okay, but you might prefer a heat gun, or a plate (3D printer’s heated bed works too).

      And good lighting of course.

        And some lint free pads for the alcohol. I buy mine dirt cheap at the pharmacy, as they’re technically bandages.
