Hello, I followed this guide and no the pixelbook will no longer power on. I reassembled exactly as described here. No light is coming on when I plu in the official charger, have tried other chargers as well. Any suggestions? I’ve been holding refresh + power and ESC but no change. Thanks…
lol $@$*…that’s reassuring ^^^ I was just about to order a replacement. Did you ever get it to turn back on? Or figure out what you did wrong lol?

What I read after the fact is that if you don’t do a full power off (hold refresh and power for 5 seconds until it is completely off) then the process here could short the motherboard. Which in my case it did. And I really wish these instructions had included something about that.
After using the spurger to start lifting the rubber like cover at a corner, a two inch wide paint scrapper proved to be an easy way to continue. Using the scrapper at roughly a 30 degree angle (with respect to the laptop rectangle) allowed progressive lifting of the cover. Ripping of the cover tended to occur if only the narrow spurger was used.

The narrow rubber foot at the base of the display is supported by bendable metal. Be careful how evenly you remove it as uneven motions will result in a more bent and harder to re-apply piece.
