Making sure you order the correct part for your iBook G4 or iBook G3. Since most parts are specific to particular iBook models you need to know precisely which model you own. The easiest way to determine this is to follow these guidelines:

2. Locating the Factory Configuration Label.
The original factory configuration of your iBook is printed on a label located on the case just above where the Airport card fits. The keyboard must be lifted up before the label can be read.
