Use a Phillips #0 screwdriver to remove the twenty screws on the underside of the T42.

Remove the four Phillips screws located on either side of the rear of the T42 (there are two on each end.)
leave these four screws alone. No need to remove them.
There are tiny numbers showing the lengths of the screws. 1-2-3-4 where 1 is the shortest.
The dark red circles are not very easy to see. How about white ones?

@Seth
Just use the pic numbering left to right each of the 4 rows.
Start at the top and remove in sequence, placing each on a strip of heavy tape to keep the screws in sequence.
Place a second strip on top when finished to secure the sequence until it's time to re-assemble.
Very poor & sketchy guide! NO mention at all of how to handle the other wires involved in disconnecting the screen (lid) from the laptop base, eg: the wireless antenna connections and instructions like: "Unscrew the screws holding it down" are far too vague! holding WHAT down ffs!!!!
