Great guide Chayton. I broke one of the clips when I took the legion 5 pro back panel off. I wish I had read your guide sooner!

Wish I read this guide before I did mine, got it done with a lot more hassle. Would love to see advice on what to use if you don't have an opening pick (a guy on YT had a guitar pick, I just used an old credit card and it was very difficult).
