    • Once the battery has been removed, we will remove the 4 screws in the battery compartment and then the 4 screws around the back of the case. These 8 screws use the Y0 bit. Each of these screws are 5.5 mm.

    • The four screws on the outside are extremely deep into the casing, and the holes are pretty small. You will need to use a 4 mm driver bit extension to reach these screws.
