Not really all my original ideas; I saw most of that information one time ages ago on a modding web page. The guy had a HOWTO for people that wanted to put a plexiglass lid on their hard drive. The above idea about the bathroom cleanroom was suggested as the best environment to open up the drive and replace the cover with a plexiglass one.
Swapping out platters is a great deal more involved, however, and if anybody out there does attempt it, and it works, I strongly suggest copying the data off of the recovered platters, then throwing away both hard drives.
