Replacing iMAC 20 inch 2.4 ghz broken LCD screen!!!

[Chungek]

So while traveling with my iMAC 20 inch 2.4 ghz (late 2008 aluminum model intel core 2 duo)

I got in a car accident and the LCD and screen totally busted so I trashed it

After doing a hardware check... all the LEDs show that everything is in working order except for the obvious missing LCD.

So my questions are:

1. Can I possibly put these internals into a 24 inch aluminum shell?

2. Can I put this in the G5 older 24 or 20 inch shells (the ones that are all white rather than aluminum colored)?

3. Or Anyone know a cheap way I can just replace the LCD and screen? (around $200?)


Thanks for your help! sucks my iMAC had to have this fate.

Wow, that's intense man... Was the accident your fault? If not you can get the other person/insurance to cover it, but that's my only suggestion. I'm not one for technical knowledge on the iMacs.
