Einleitung

Power off the laptop and place it face-down on a non-scratching surface.
Using a Torx T5 screwdriver head, remove all ten 6 mm screws holding the back panel in place.

The front center-right screw may be shorter (3.5mm) than the others (6.5mm), and may be captive in the back panel.

Slide a plastic opening tool underneath the back case near the screen hinges.
Gently pry up on either side of the case.
You may hear popping sounds as you pry up the back case. This is normal. If the case does not open, try prying at a different angle/position.

Make sure when replacing the back cover to use the Small T5 Screw under the track pad or else the longer ones will make it so the pad wont click.

Pull up the black foam adhesive that covers the screw and connectors holding the Wi-Fi card in place.

Using an opening tool, lift up on the black and white coaxial cables on the Wi-Fi card and gently pull upward to unplug them.
When reconnecting the cables, be sure to match the colors to the arrows on the Wi-Fi card.
