Update - HP's service manual for their computers has disappeared, but they have a lot more of their own service videos on their YouTube channel. In this particular case, they demonstrate in this video using a wooden dowel how to pop they keyboard loose like their manual describes. The audio is actually just the computer reading the steps from their manual. If any one can find the manual, please add it here.

I had some 2mm two sided 3M 300LSE repair tape left from a previous cell phone repair Perfect for re-affixing the speaker cable to the inside of the case.

Great guide. Thanks for the detail; the pictures; the warnings. I used the awesome iFixit toolkit with the 24 small compartments in the lid, and scribbled out a little graph with the step numbers each of the screws came out of. No mistakes!

Thanks for this; I had to tear mine down for a good cleaning. Couldn’t have done it without my favourite website: ifixit.com! Who would have thought to turn something clockwise to loosen!

You’ll need to remove the keyboard to access the ram on the other side of the logic board. The procedure is here: HP ZBook 15 Keyboard Replacement
