'Modding' a SE mainboard into a 5c body.
I‘d like to build a White 5c with white Face plate and SE Motherboard, a 5c Second Edition so to speak.
After some research and finding supply source for a White 5c front plate and Home Buttons (including “fake fingerprint“option) only few questions remain:
- Most of my research was on Google and finds have been of 5s parts into a 5c.
- Has the SE differences in screw or connections layout and types as compared to a 5s or are these the same ?
- Is it possible to install a fingerprint button into a 5c front plate and how to move over the assembly of board and fingerprint sensor without disconnecting and thus disabling fingerprint?
Did I overlook something substantial or is it, asides of fingerprint, really as easy as swapping the mainboard?
Thanks in advance for advise!

Considering the other way around as well- am be easier with the Touch ID homebutton:
Using a SE and changing the screen assemblies plastic frame to a 5c frame, would buttons still line up, same with antenna gaps and mounts ?
A rear case, camera/ flash module board, the display frame and battery adhesive stripes may be all that is required to convert a SE into the lovely 5c‘s format.
Questa è una buona domanda?
