Rivets and screws are the key. You want to get an “ear” of a corner of the keyboard with some needle nose pliers (with teeth). Then you pull very hard until the rivets pop out. Then you want to take a sharp edged paint scraper and go to each rivet and pop them out 1 by 1 until it is done. This will be your screw holes. Be careful some screws are not milled long enough to fit in the rivet hole. So make sure you have more than enough screws. The area should be cleaned and deburred of any metal shavings before you install it. There are many screw to install. Do 10 and take a break to know it out in an hour. I charge customers for this process at my shop.

Rivets and screws are the key. You want to get an “ear” of a corner of the keyboard with some needle nose pliers (with teeth). Then you pull very hard until the rivets start popping out. Then you want to take a sharp edged paint scraper and go to each left behind rivet and pop them out 1 by 1 until it is done. This will be your screw holes. Be careful some screws are not milled long enough to fit in the rivet hole. So make sure you have more than enough screws. The area should be cleaned and deburred of any metal shavings before you install it. There are many screws to install. Do 10 and take a break or knock it out in an hour.
