To open the bottom compartment, put one finger underneath the laptop and firmly grab the compartment with your thumb.
-
Carefully slide the bottom compartment with your thumb until you feel it pop out of place.

Unscrew the twenty M2 x 6 Phillips screws screwdriver and the PH001 bit. Once you've done that unplug the battery and disconnect all the components connected to the motherboard.

Once every component is disconnected and removed, pry open the bottom of the laptop using the pry tool.

Once it's all opened disconnect the two components that are attached to the motherboard and keyboard by detaching them.

To detach the big wire connected, pull the sides of where it's connected to the motherboard down and gently pull the connection out.

For the small wire, just pull off the tape that's holding it on the touchpad of the keyboard and gently pull the wire out.

Remove all the M2 x 3 Phillips screws that are holding the keyboard in place. Some will be located under the tape. Pull up the tape and unscrew them.
