    • Using the spudger and iFixit Opening Tool at the indicated locations, pry the keyboard directly up. Ensure that the tools reach under both the plastic keyboard cover and the metal base of the keyboard, as both will be removed.

    • Once you have a few tools in place, it's possible to slide your tool along the underside of the keyboard and unclip all of the tabs at once.

    • Remove the keyboard.

    • Lift the keyboard so that you can see the housing and cables underneath. Be sure you lifted the metal baseplate of the keyboard and not just the plastic covering.

    • This will reveal a ribbon wire on the right side of the laptop connected to the motherboard through a small window in the metal top plate. Use tweezers to carefully pull the connector gently to the left, unplugging it from its port.

    • Locate the 1.5 x 7mm Phillips #00 screw at the bottom right of the keyboard housing.

    • Remove this screw. Note that this is the only 1.5x7 mm screw in the entire laptop, so it is very important to keep track of it.

    • Place a screwdriver or other firm tool with a fine tip inside the hole to the left of the screw hole. Push all the way to the left to unlock the slide.

    • It will take a good bit of force to move the slide, as it unlocks a series of clips underneath the trackpad plate.

    • Use an iFixit Opening Tool to unclip the tabs on the sides of the laptop, just underneath the top plastic cover. Once one of them is off, it should pop off willingly. You may need to slide the tool around the edge like you did for the keyboard.

    • Use an iFixit Opening Tool to fit inside the tab exactly opposite the battery pack, and use it to pry off the back cover.

    • If the cover is reluctant to come off, feel free to use a second Opening Tool or a spudger to run along the edge of the cover to help remove it.

    • Remove the cover.

    • If you don't have a paper clip, a similar-sized metal object will work.

    • Unscrew the three Phillips #00 M2.0x4.0 screws.

    • When reassembling the computer, remember to replace these screws before replacing the black plastic faceplate for the disk drive.

Conclusie

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Many screen replacements are sold as the LCD screen only, and do not include the plastic casing and metal hinges that are connected to your screen. If you buy one of these screens, you will need to disassemble the screen casing to install the new screen. Unfortunately, this process is beyond the scope of this guide.

If you do need to disassemble the plastic casing to replace your screen, this video may be helpful.
