General disassembly strategy for new keyboard - Logitech G613

I want to investigate the innards of the G613 mechanical (wireless!) keyboard. The product has a known ping coming from both handling and its Romer G switches, possibly from echoing off an internal metal plate. This is a well built, beefy keyboard with a good fit and finish (unfortunately). I've removed all visible screws and run plastic cards along the circumference of the part gaps. Gotten some popping (I don't think any tabs broke), but nothing loosens. It's as solid and stable as can be.

There are foam pads I could pull to see if there are hidden screws, but I'm reluctant as I want to be sure I can replace or re-set a very good adhesive for a pretty expensive keyboard. There are only two small pads adjacent to the fold-out stands which already had screws underneath. I'm skeptical that there are more fasteners that close, though it's not impossible.

Well belay that. I've seen some comments and tests that make me conclude it actually is the switch springs resonating. Very unfortunate. If someone wants to go ahead and do a teardown or answer the original question for other people to see, please feel free.

I do, but it is in storage. I switched to a Filco keyboard and am pretty happy with it.

There are in fact screws hidden under the foam pads.

I know, old thread but if anyone else was looking.

Hey there, I just tore down my keyboard (long story short, I got bleach in it.) there are a total of 14 screws I believe and there are two under each long rubber part under he keyboard and one under the small rubber pieces near the stands of the keyboard. Then there is also one under the service number sticker right in the middle. Unscrew all of those then pop it off and you'll be at the back of the keyboard. There are more screws holding that into place so, if you want to take that out you'll have to unscrew those.

What was underneath? I’m wondering if there are electronics under the palm rest. It not, I’m planning on disassembling and removing the palm rest myself.

Actually, it seems there are no electronics in the palm rest!
