This guide will take you through the steps of how to remove the plastic backing from the Chromebook. Keep in mind, there are two different types of screws that keep the backing in place; make sure to keep these two types separate when they are taken out. Note: This guide is not a replacement guide. Instead, this step is necessary for replacing other components of the Chromebook.

When I removed the screws from the bottom (Step 1), the 8 screws closest to the hinge were 7mm, and the front 4 were 5mm. Hope this helps someone in the future.
