Step 2

Step 3

– Place the laptop with its screen facing down on the table, making sure it’s comfy and stable.

– Grab a spudger and gently work your way around the top left and right corners of the bezel. You’ll feel and hear the satisfying release of the clips as you go.

– Now, flip the device around 180 degrees (screen still down, of course!) and use the spudger to loosen the bezel along the bottom, right between the hinges.

Step 4

– Lift the bezel just a smidge off the top corners of the screen—about an inch will do.

– Give the plastic bezel a gentle tug toward yourself, keeping it chill and steady.

– Set the bezel aside in a safe spot. Easy as pie!

Step 5

– Twist out those four black #0 3mm Phillips screws that are holding the screen down. Easy peasy!

– Peel back the small strips of black tape chilling at the bottom center of the screen near the keyboard. You’ve got this!

Step 6

– Flip the screen up from the shiny tabs at the top, and gently rest it on the keyboard like the chill buddy it is.

– Unwrap the slim black tape around that ribbon cable connection—easy does it—you’ve got this!

– Peel off the clear tape covering the ribbon cable connection. Slow and steady wins the day!

Step 7

– Gently tug on that ribbon cable to release it from its hold.

– Carefully peel away any leftover tape that’s sticking the screen to the laptop.

Success!
Reassemble your device by working through these steps in reverse. Remember to secure the cable back to the screen—it’ll save you a lot of display headaches later!
