Removal of the keyboard will be covered in this guide. To successfully remove the keyboard, a #0 Phillips screwdriver, a T5 Torx screwdriver, a plastic spudger, and tweezers are needed. Be careful disconnecting cables as to not break them or their connectors.

    • Remove the ten 3mm Phillips #0 screws on the perimeter of the keyboard assembly.

    • Remove the ten 2.5mm Phillips #0 screws underneath the plastic shielding of the keyboard.

    First, carefully remove large foil sticker across center of keyboard, tape across top of keyboard, and individual stickers covering keyboard screws. These are what will protect your computer from future spills, so you probably want to try and reuse them or replace with foil heat-resistant tape.

    Next remove 14 perimeter screws and 13 interior screws. They are different sizes so don’t mix them together.

Thank you for this guide! Is there any way to obtain replacement screws for the outer perimeter of the keyboard? I’ve recently disassembled my XPS 9530 and found one of the screws is very stripped, I managed to get it out but it really shouldn’t be put back in due to the state of the head.

I’m struggling to find replacements for the size quoted. Are they Phillips M2 3mm silver screws?
