Einleitung

These are the steps for removing the monitor screen from your Toshiba Satellite C55-B5302 laptop. Before starting, make sure you have your Phillips size #0 screwdriver and a systematic way to keep all the unscrewed screws as there are going to be a large number of them with different dimensions. Since we will be working in close proximity with the monitor screen, you should be careful not to scratch it.
