Step 1 — Top Bezel
Before opening your iPod, ensure that the hold switch is in the locked position.
Step 2
Carefully insert a small flathead screwdriver in the seam between the metal casing and white plastic top. Use the screwdriver to pry up the white plastic top bezel. Be careful not to damage the soft plastic with your screwdriver.
The top bezel is held on with an adhesive, so it may be necessary to pry up in several different locations to free the part.
Step 3
Lift the top bezel off of the iPod.
