Why on God's green earth would you want to own 2 E53's at 16, talk about eating up all your free time with maintenance work LOL, at least you are smart and both are 3.0's

Just messing, the Alpine one does look clean.

yeah. the correct part # was ordered but you never know. eBay/China stuff is a marriage made in hell.

Hope I get the right screen with no dead pixels to start with.
