This evening I sat down and had a crack at the second LCD panel. And well... I'm not entirely sure how I managed this, but:

For reference, this is how the R50p panel looked before I took it apart. Note the differently-coloured backlight cable and the non-mangled foil tape. Yes, not only have I now taken apart two LCD panels, but I even managed to put one back together! With any luck, it'll even work.
