Any DIY repair of an iPad is risky. If you search on YouTube you will find many DIY repairs gone well....and not so well. Regardless of the result the process of disassembling and reassembling any iPad requires a skill set I certainly don't have. My poor vision alone is reason enough to never even attempt a repair myself.
Hi and welcome to the Forum!
I've also heard of quite a few members who have had their screens replaced now having trouble with their wifi connection as this is very easily damaged during this procedure. Having this done by anyone other than Apple will also void your warranty, but that being said your warranty is also voided from dropping it.
