Double check your ribbon cable to the motherboard. More often than not that is the problem. If the cable isn't in right, the screen goes white and turns off.

Yeah that looks like a rip in the cable. That probably is the reason. You'll have to get the top screen replaced.

Soldering iron... But I meant the ribbon cable looks ripped, you won't be able to fix that.

Use a small drill bit and drill a hole, you should be able to force the screw through that.

Check you haven't damaged the ribbon cable, and check that you have inserted it correctly. If you haven't touched it, double check just in case.

You got the name of the eBay seller?

This is the best shot. http://www.console-central.com/images/stories/nintendo/ds/dslite-replacement-shell/dsFilm.jpg

Can't get any better than that, I've just changed my PC to a new, larger case without an SD card reader. Until I cut out and install my old SD card reader I can't get you any other shots.
