Introduction

Tools

Step 1

Turn the keyboard over so that it is lying flat on its face.
Use the iFixit opening tool to pry the rubber feet off the keyboard.

Step 2

Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver to remove the six screws on the back of the keyboard.
Use an opening tool as a wedge between the front and back panel to pry open the front panel.
If the front and back panel won't separate, DO NOT use excessive force. This may result in damaging the keyboard.
Instead, slide the opening tool across the keyboard in between the front and back panel. Go around the edges of the keyboard until the panels disconnect.
Flip the keyboard over so the keys are facing up.
Grabbing the left and right lips of the front panel, lift both ends up, removing the front panel.

Mine also had two clips on the left and right sides. Needed to run an opening tool over one side before I could open it

In order to remove the keys at all you need to remove the led's as well, which have 4 pins and are awful to get out.. I would appreciate it if this guide had noted that before I started this repair..

Step 3

Pinch the top and bottom of the key of the metal bar that you wish to replace and gently lift.
Tilt the key upwards so that you may see underneath it.

Step 4

Using tweezers unfasten the metal bar from the key both places that they are connected.
Using tweezers unfasten the metal bar from the keyboard itself both places that they are connected.

Conclusion

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