Next, flip the laptop over and open it up. The keyboard can be easily removed by pushing it back from the front. I suggest using a jimmy tool to slip into the tiny gap to push it back.
Look closely at the two images you'll notice a slight gap at the bottom if you did this step correctly

Use a plastic pry tool to lift up the plastic clip holding down the ribbon cable. Be very gentle with it so it doesn't break
