      • Insert and gently twist the flat metal spudger between the keyboard assembly and the bottom plastic cover so that a small seam is opened.

      • Put in the metal spudger in the seam to hold its place while twisting and levering the flat metal spudger along the whole keyboard.

      • Be careful not to hit any of the internals with the metal spudger. The regular black nylon spudger should be used whenever possible, especially around batteries or sensitive internal components.

      • You will need add a lot of pressure to open the laptop. Expect to hear snaps as the clips holding the two pieces are released.

      • Slowly pry off the back
