I dropped my wife's iPhone 5 in the pool a while ago. The bottom right corner of the touch screen isn't responsive.

Likely to be solved with a kit like this?

The genuine Apple one on Amazon is a 20 minute job tops but £64. No parts to swap over. First time around I did a similar kit to yours OP and never got the home button to seat correctly despite many goes.
