Hi all, I just finished fixing my LCD bezel, sorry no pictures as I'm at work and had to finish up as quick as possible.
OK then all I needed was a small Phillips screwdriver, a small flat screw driver and a Stanley blade. Use the blade to carefully remove the bottom two rubber pads covering the screws (be careful not to handle too much or they loose there sticky) then remove the bottom two screws.
Next we gently insert the flat screwdriver into the right hand side of the bowing bezel and very gently pry away from screen, while you are applying pressure use the blade and insert it into were the lid and bezel meet (on the right hand side) and poke it a little and the the clips should pop open.
Bear in mind that the bezel only opens on the right hand side, the left side has plastic that goes into the lower half of the Pandora but there is more than enough room.
Then I used my flat screw driver and pushed down were you can see copper coloured tape inside (I think it was in the way of a clip inside the case) then I popped the bezel back into place and applied a lot of pressure to the middle and the right of the bezel (while screws are still out) then when I was happy with the bezel I put the screws back in but loose (not too loose but just at the point they start to bite and pull the plastics together) and Put my rubbers back on. The Pandora has been running for a couple of hours now and the bezel is still nice and flush and hasn't popped itself back out.
Happy day's my Pandora is now Perfect!
Be sure to remove the battery first if you are going to attempt this. Bad things happen to people who open electronics with battery's still connected :lol:
