I did not want to stick a screwdriver into the case blind -- I could not tell if the 2 holes were for screws or not; and I had something rattling around inside after dropping it for the nth time. Now to see if I can cobble 1 fully working 670 from one that doesn’t display anything except the glow and the other that doesn’t have all the buttons working. I don't suppose you have any specs on the lcd display? They seem impossible to find. Just lots of posts about it not working. Again thanks for taking the time to post the pics!

All I can find is two screws in the battery case. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks nice work. how did you open the 670 without breaking the case?

But his exercise bike also has a heart rate readout that depends on your hands touching metal contacts on the handlebars. He set out to see if he could patch the chest strap data into the exercise bike LCD display. [...] [...] This hack came out so well that [Levent] wishes he had tried it years ago.
