Amazing! Was it easy to put the cover on the back? The camera program doesn't open when you slide it, does it? Either way, I love it. My W180i's camera is getting PRETTY dusty..

yup everything fits perfectly fine

That is good news. I've got a broken K750 and it's back cover should work nicely.

Search around for the write up here. You need to trim the upper 2 inner tabs on the 750 to get it to fit right.

Got it.

Sorry, one last thing. What kind of screwdriver do I need to take the back cover off? The two little ones, near the battery cover. Is it T5 or T6? The "T" stands for Torx, right?

And this basically a quick swap, right? I just unscrew the back housing of the K750 and W810. I line things up and just screw the new one on? For the purposes of this, will my W810i housing fit on the K750?

You just need a small phillips for the back cover swap.

Take off the battery cover, remove battery, remove 2 screws, pry off old back, put new one on (after trimming the tabs).
The 810 back would not work on the 750 because of the auto camera deal (unless it can be turned off, but I have never seen one so I don't know).

Nvm, I found the thread. Damn, that one screw is stopping me. I'll have to find me a tiny Phillips screwdriver, somewhere...

Posted by: ikjadoon

Haha, yes! I did it! And guess what? I didn't have to trim anything, it fit perfectly!

~Ibrahim~

P.S. Pictures will be uploaded as soon as I find the cable to my digital camera,

Here it is!

Finally got that one screw. I actually didn't have to trim anything, it fit perfectly. That orange mirror was a *****. I had to sand the plastic off and superlgue it on.

Posted by: ikjadoon

It covers the rim of the lens, with the focus information. I checked, it doesn't interfere with the acutal lens. lol, it is the TV, my mom was on the phone, too.
