Good evening!

I have an old 24'' iMac 6.1 Core2Duo in white (A1200) here staying unused at home. One day I was asking myself as the hardware is not somehow productive useful in daily use, if a LCD panel with all the electronics from an 24'' Cinema Display fit inside the housing of that named iMac?

Why will I do this?
Well this answer is for me quite easy: Because this is the most beautiful iMac built after the G4 and I want to use it again.

I googled those panels and they're looking same sized or even the Cinema Display panel looked to have a slightly smaller panel bezel. So does anyone has measurements of those 2 panels? According to iFixit they both are really tight fit into the housings...
