You can start with the display assembly guide, which will get you most of the way there. Assuming that you're trying to replace the display case and the glass/LCD are fine, you'll have to remove everything from the display case. Start with the mid 2010 LCD guide; the machines are almost identical. From there, it will just be removing small things such as display hinges and antenna cables to get down to the bare display case.
