The MacBook Air hinges house the Webcam, Wifi/Bluetooth Antennae and the Display Connectors within them. This guide will show you how to remove the bezel and replace the hinges and also replace these connectors.

    • Remove the gasket that runs along the perimeter of the display. You can use a spudger to pry up the bezel and tweezers to pull it out.

    • Be careful to not tear your gasket

    • Apply Heat to loosen the adhesive, in a pinch you do not necessarily need it; but it always helps with adhesives.

    • Begin Prying from the right corner as pictured.

    • The Webcam and Antennae are under the left side of the bezel.

    • If you're just replacing your Webcam skip this step

    • Remove the three T8 Torx screws

    • Remove the PH000 screw

    • Flip the board over and disconnect it.

    • The Wifi / Bluetooth / Webcam cable can now be removed and replaced.

    • Disconnect your webcam connection,

    • The webcam is held in by the bezel and a small bit of adhesive on the backside of the webcam

Abschluss

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order. I recommend cleaning it with alcohol and using VHB tape for glueing the bezel back on.

Buen paso a paso, pero es de tener en cuenta 2 consideraciones. 1. al momento de la apertura, ¿donde se consigue una cama calefactora tran grande?. 2. al momento del sellado, ¿se debe usar un adesivo especial?
