    If the connector on the motherboard is still attached and only the clip is broken you can try and find a new clip, or perhaps tape the keyboard in place with electrical tape.

    I didn’t need to disconnect and remove the cable. I simply set the keyboard gently to the side. This gave me full access to the two RAM module slots for replacement. Hopefully this will make the procedure easier.
