Fits Exactly and Works Great! But this is not the easiest repair task. I have years of experience and can easily replace drives/screens/boards on any Dell/Lenovo/HP/Apple desktop/laptop. But it was my first job on the iPad. I did it via OK but I don't think it's a job for anyone. I should mention that it ripped just minutes after I put it back together, but I don't think it has anything to do with the quality of the part. The detail seems fantastic, but the initial impact that shattered the original screen left a small dent in the bottom corner of the case's edge. I tried to smooth it out as much as possible but at the same time I tried not to damage the real LCD screen. So when I applied pressure to set the adhesive, the new screen broke just like the old screen. In short, I stuffed a new straight screen into a slightly curved body without realizing it. But it's still fully functional with the crack, so we'll have to use it for a year or two before the crack takes over again. We lived with a cracked original screen for about 3 years before it got bad enough to replace it.
