Replace MacBook display with a high-resolution 3rd party display?

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

Hi iFixit people,

Without going to the reasons of why, for a while already I have been searching and wondering wether it has been done, is possible, or within reach. That is replacing the original MacBook 1280/800 display with an equivalent 13" display in size but with higher resolution and maybe better technology (IPS/LED).

I understand that os x certainly could handle any display, but the physical connectors should match and the display should physically fit to the casing of course.

If no third party displays exist with the right dimensions and specifications, could I replace the MacBook display with the MacBook Air display. Are the connectors the same?

Thanks.
