Where can I find rear panel please help?

Exact, on peut déposer le volet arrière en 1 seul fois. Commencer sans outil, juste avec les mains en forçant légèrement sur un angle inférieur (droit ou gauche peut importe) afin de déboîter un premier clips-plastic. Puis avec un outil fin en plastique (pas de métal de préférence !) faire le tour de l’écran afin de déboîter tous les clips-plastic. Merci pour ce post.

To keep the frame notches intact, pry the frame first sideways, then to the back, lifting the outside notches of the frame over the inside notches of the device.
My rear panel seems welded together with the frame, so came off as a whole. I noticed 8 inside/device notches of the total 4x6 notches broke in the process.
Before disassemble, I noticed in the middle on the longer side, next to the power button, already a gap, through which I saw the copper shining of the sidekeys part. Maybe because of temperature expansion or strain of the elastic corner clips of the sleeve I used.

Correction: “To keep the frame notches .. device.” = “Notches on the plastic motherboardchassis are snapped over notches of the outside frame locking both together. To keep the chassis notches intact, .. chassis.“
