None... whatever was in there is still in there.

I really should go back and tape the display down properly (so it won't slam into one of the corners if the reader is ever dropped). Well, I assume that what would happen if the display doesn't stick to its backplate proper. Not testing that. I just didn't have any suitable tape at hand.

I don't reglue the front bezel at all... I just don't separate IR fins and bezel (stays as one part) and it sticks well enough using the glue that was already there - sticks to the display in particular, getting it off the display without cracking it can be a challenge, particularly at the bottom where there's a really wide glue strip - as seen in the first picture of my first post here

Of course, not waterproof anymore but that's a tall order anyway.

Edit: oh, I actually use a bit of clear spellotape on the back to seal the sd-card-hole but I guess most people don't cut a hole there, anyway
