On the underside of the motherboard, use the halberd spudger to pry up the square metal cover.
I think you could just markup the first shot, then get a shot of you lifting the covering with the spudger. Also, be sure to indicate how to use the spudger, not just to do it.

Pull the metal retaining pins on either side of the RAM stick apart. The RAM stick will pop up.

Remove the RAM and insert a new one that is compatible.
Which metal pins? Do you need a tool, or use your hands? Do you have a picture of it popped up, before you grab it out? I think you could replace the first picture with one in the middle with the component popped out.

this is the first time i’ve been on the ifixit site but thanks to my google search of this topic, I found this and it is extremely simple and helpful. I haven’t actually done this yet but am confident I can once I get the replacement ram. I need my laptop to be a portable video editing work station and the stock ram on these will run premiere pro, just very very slowly.
