Is it possible to change my glossy display in my mid 2012 with a early 2011 matte display? Basically, swapping the complete lid assembly with everything thats inside with the other display?
First review the IFIXIT guide here: MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Mid 2012 Display Replacement Make sure you have the needed tools and skills. Yes, you can swap the display assemblies between them. But! you will loose the better FaceTime camera: 2011 FaceTime HD camera Vs 2012 720p FaceTime HD camera.
