    • Orient the console so that the words "XBOX 360" on the sides are right-side up, and the faceplate is facing to the left.

    • Insert a metal spudger between the top vent and the top bezel near the rear of the Xbox.

    • Rotate the spudger away from the console, prying the edge of the fan vent up until the two plastic clips come free.

    • Be sure to rotate the spudger far enough so that the plastic clips clear the silver rim of the top bezel.

    Whoever gave that tool the name “spudger” needs to be shot in the face.

    • Pull the hard drive straight out of the console.

    • The fabric tab is attached to a catch further inside the hard drive housing. It will take some force to pull the hard drive out.

    You will still have your saves and account if you replace your hard drive in the new xbox

    • In the following steps, you will remove the bottom bezel, which is attached to the rest of the console by the six clips shown.

    • The clips shown in red can be detached by inserting a metal spudger underneath the bottom edge of the clip. Once underneath the bottom edge, simply prying away from the console will free the clip.

    • Insert a metal spudger through the slit near the rear left corner of the bottom bezel.

    • Rotate the spudger away from the device while lifting the rear bezel up with the other hand.

    • You may hear a "pop" signifying the clip has cleared its catch.

    These are pretty awkward to remove, but once you understand how they work its easy enough. The goal here is to slot the spudger THROUGH the gap of the silver tabs (visible in previous steps image, circled) and then pry. Put pressure against the wall of the Xbox case and push downwards, once you feel the spudger slot in, then apply force away from the Xbox and pull up a little with your free hand.

    • Turn the console around so that the faceplate is facing to the right and the right case is facing toward you.

    • Insert the spudger into the rear-most slit on the right edge of the bottom bezel, and wedge it behind the clip by pushing the spudger down while pushing the tip of the spudger against the right case.

    • Simultaneously release the clip and pull the bottom bezel up.

    • This clip is especially hard to remove. Some force will be required to insert the spudger correctly.

  22. RfPl2wCnjJEJNYGq
    • This clip does not have a slit in the bezel to guide you. You can locate the clip by looking under the bezel near the hard drive slot.

    • Insert a spudger between the silver rim and bottom bezel directly above the clip shown.

    • Release the clip while pulling up on the bottom bezel.

    • Lift the left edge of the bottom bezel up enough to gain clearance.

    • Insert a metal spudger behind the left edge of the last clip, and push the clip away from the right case.

    • Opening your Xbox 360 any further will require breaking or removing the warranty sticker on the outer case. Your Microsoft warranty for any components not directly attached to the logic board will likely be voided by removing this seal.

    Does not void the warranty in the United States according to the FTC that sent a cease and desist letter directly to Microsoft about this exact issue.

    As the user above me said, please avoid doing it like shown in the guide. It just didn’t work on my Xbox (unless your goal is to destroy the plastic case). Instead, pick some small needle like object (the spudger was too short for this, I used the SIM bit of my iFixit driver kit) and find the right spot on the big sticker which is on the left in the pictures shown in the guide. That spot is just between the text and the column of logos (Dolby Digital, etc.) (https://team-xecuter.com/slim/slim_secre..., picture not mine). Poke it (don’t be too gentle, you have to apply some force) and you will hear the clip release.

    • Lift the left edge of the faceplate upward to release the last two clips securing the faceplate to the right case.

    • Detach the faceplate from the rest of the device.

    • The faceplate is still attached to the console by a thin ribbon cable. Do not attempt to completely remove the faceplate yet.

    It is easier to perform step 40 before 34 (unscrew the long torx screws to make the right case flexible)

    • Using a spudger or fingernail, lift the clear blue tab away from the connector.

    • Slide the locking tab on the power switch board cable connector toward the top of the console.

    • The locking tab will only move about 2 mm.

    • Pull the power switch cable straight out of the connector.

    • The faceplate is now free of the rest of the console.

    • Remove the two 5.6 mm T8 Torx screws securing the RF module to the metal case.

    On my disassembly during this part, I found the T9 Torx to be too big and had to use the T8 Torx instead.

    weitmeyerj -

    The correct size is T8!

    thomasforster -

    I guess you need to check for your own size : I used the TR9 as the TR8 was a little too loose.

    • The RF module is still connected to the Xbox by a large USB-type connector.

    • Pull the board directly away from the Xbox to remove it.

    This step is not needed.

    Wade -

    It may not be required but recommended. As you move the xbox around you could break this part. Removing it and placing it in a safe place keeps that from happening.

    junkyardjojo -

    Is the rf module married to the mother board? Im trying to replace the piece but dont want to start if it is not compatible.
