This is by far the most informative instructions I have ever come upon. Not only does it explain the keyboard removal (which was my issue), but also explains the removal of pretty much every component that might need to be replaced excluding the screen. Thumbs up! I will definitely refer all my friends all colleagues to iFixit. Again Thumbs up!
