Uh, make sure you read the iFixit tear-down on the iPad, Don. iPads are not designed to be fixed.
Last week I went intop the Apple store and just happened to see their tech guy walk out from the back room so I approached him and asked. He said thyey do iphone repair because the screen is not glued in but easily removed with 2 screws. Then he said I am not allowed to tell you that I can replace the ipad screen with special procedure independently. He than said if you are willing to try it yourself you can buy the parts online but trust me it is not easy.
Then he showed me their replacement cost for the Gen 6 which is $259. I can but a new one for $249 from Amazon and get my Amazon discount.
My daughter has a friend who runs an Apple repair business and he said he does screen replacements for $50. I found front glass and digitizer and home button kits for $31.
Last night I spent 2 hours removing the shards of glass from the frame by melting the glue with the ifixit iopener and razor blades. I have the ifixit deluxe Apple repair kit. In the process I discovered the ribbon cable on the digitizer was ruined, as well as the home button. The LCD screen is good. These can also be bought for ~$50 from a variety of sources.
One YT video claimed the Home button ribbon is soldered to the main board which is false. There is a micro multipin connector with a tiny locking lever. It is easily accessed under the LCD and Digitizer cover plate.
Ordered replacement parts now. so waiting for then to arrive.
This is definitely more difficult than replacing a battery or screen in an iphone.
