I successfully did the same for my wife, but I have some gripes about it:
1) The instructions were not complete! It only walked me through disassembly and attaching the new screen. I had to walk backwards through the instructions to get the phone assembled, and I felt the instructions left enough ambiguities that I'm surprised her phone doesn't show any side effects.
2) The pictures on the instructions were WAY too small to be of much use. In one case the circle designating where the screw to remove resides was not over the real location.
3) The instructions implied that the manual was magnetic for holding screws - it was plain printer paper.
Overall I got the job done cheaper (and faster) with iCracked than sending it away, but I'd like to see my gripes addressed before doing it again. This was for the 4s if anyone cares.
