I would want the modification, when completed, to look professional. To be rugged. And, of course, to be an improvement. Ideally, we should try to minimize soldering by identifying components with compatible connectors. Another admirable goal would be to make the modification reversible, just so that in case someone didn't like the result, that they could put things back the way they were.
Previous threads have discussed if removing the LED lighting would simplify and/or improve screen clarity. What's the final thought on that question. Personally, I could easily give up the lighting for improved screen clarity.

they cant be removed, but no one said that you couldnt recess the digitizer, that would increase clarity most of all. you would need one that would fit in the recess though.
but the whole idea is stupid i think, you can get good results on contrast just be using a different font, Like Heltivica, Verdana, or DejaVu Serif.
