What you need

Begin by placing your laptop on a clean surface such as a table and away from any liquids which may spill and damage components.
-
Flip the laptop over so the bottom is facing up and use your Phillips #0 screwdriver to remove the 11 visible 5mm screws on the back.
-
Unscrew the two remaining 2.5mm screws. Keep these screws separate from the first eleven 5mm screws.

Flip the laptop back over onto its normal side up and raise the screen. Using the metal spudger, separate the keyboard surface from the bottom of the laptop.
-
While lifting the keyboard surface from the bottom, you will notice three cables still attaching them together. Gently unplug each of these cables from the motherboard.
