Remove the two screws which are located at the bottom corners of the screen.
-
The screws are underneath little covers which can be removed with a craft knife.
-
-
-
Carefully slide your plastic spudger tool into the crack between the outer edge of the bezel and the back of the display assembly.
-
Slide it all the way along all edges, carefully unclipping the bezel from the back assembly.
-
Be very careful and take your time - it's easy to snap the bezel or to break the clips, making reassembly less secure.
-
Once everything is released you should be able to lift up the bezel and it freely come away.
-
-
-
Remove the two screws holding the back assembly to the hinge mechanism.
-
Be careful as you're unscrewing these! Support the display assembly with your other hand.
-
Lay the loose display assembly down and then fold the metal foil tabs up and out of the way.
-
Some models' screens are held down by adhesive; if this is the case with yours, carefully pry the screen away from the back being careful not to damage any cables.
-
If your display is screwed down, there will be extra screws to remove and it should then come away freely.
-
-
-
Fold the loose screen down onto the laptop's keyboard, as if you were closing the laptop, with the rear of the display assembly still open.
-
Carefully remove the connecting ribbon cable as shown in the picture.
-
You may need to remove the sticky adhesive tape which holds the connector in place before you can remove it.
-
When reassembling, replace this with some fresh sticky table to help prevent it coming loose over time.
-
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
