    • The speaker wires are fragile. They may break if excessive force is used to remove the circuit board.

    • Removal of the circuit board requires soldering.

    • Gently push on the display from the front, near the camera. The circuit board and display will pop out through the back.

    For the DX2, the construction appears to have changed, the faceplate is held on with glue and has to be removed from the front. I used an iFixit Opening Tool to do so. Sadly pushing on the screen does not remove it. There is also an internal screw, however I'm unsure if that needs to be removed or not as I had already removed it before attempting to remove the screen.
