| + | [* black] Remove the base plate by lifting a corner or using an iFixIt suction cup to make the process easier. |
|---|---|
| + | [* black] Take a picture so you remember where all the pretty colored screws from inside the case go. |
| + | [* black] Unplug the battery connection so that you don't accidentally short something and fry up your expensive laptop that has almost zero replaceable parts. |
| + | [* black] Unplug the cables connecting the screen to the motherboard, there is one for the video, one for the touchscreen, and a couple tiny connectors for the wireless. |
| + | [* black] Remove the green screws that hold the hinge of the lid into the case. There are a number of them, and there is one on each side with a grounding/cable management clip around it, the screw isn't different than the others, but don't lose the clip. |
| + | [* black] Swap out the screen for your replacement likely obtained on eBay and carefully replug the video and touch and wireless cables back into their connectors. |
| + | [* black] If you are very careful you can test your new screen and it's touch capability without screwing it back into the case, if you aren't foolhardy, you will put a couple screws in so that you can turn over the laptop without having the screen yank the cables off the motherboard. |
