Step 2
- Remove all nine screws from the bottom of the device using a T5 screwdriver.
- Remove two additional screws, if present, from beneath the rubber pads. (Pry up each rubber pad to access its screw.)
- Carefully remove the bottom cover. The cover doesn’t just lift up, you have to lift it to a approx. 45° angle, then pull towards the exterior (there are two small plastic claws that maintain the cover attached)

This guide worked fine for me. I have two suggestions that made my disassembly easier.
First, I used the standard blue guitar pick to gently pop the back cover off near the hinge. Nothing special here.
Second, the power connector in Step 5 lifts up to disconnect. I found using the blue pry bar to lift the side of the connector much easier than tweezers.
Good, clear, complete guide.

Great guide, worked for me.
Additionally, for Step 7, the 3 screws might be hidden under cushion stickers. These can be peeled off and put back later.

Mein Laptop geht nach dem Umbau nicht mehr einzuschalten. Selbst die kleine Akku LED leuchtet nicht mehr, sobald das Netzkabel dran gesteckt ist. :(
