    • Here are the screws organised by steps and size.

    • Use this if needed as a reference during reassembly.

    • The screws from the bottom cover (6, large) and bumper (8, small) are missing, as I usually keep the bottom cover screws separately as they are non-magnetic, and I usually do not remove the screws from the bumper lid.
