Great guide & photos! Thank you for putting it up.
Just a few clarifications:
Step 5: two screws secure the power port plate, rather than the single screw mentioned.
Step 8: not "carefully"; REALLY CAREFULLY, or it's new WiFi card time :-D
Step 13 to Step 14: also unscrew the two screws on the rear laptop face which hold the assembly in. They're shown in Step 10, outboard of the hinge covers.
