Don't attempt to fully remove the LCD during this step, as it's still connected by several cables at the home button end.

Only lift the LCD from the front-facing camera end.

Use the flat end of a spudger to pry the LCD out of its recess just enough to grab it with your fingers.

Flip the iPad LCD like a page in a book, lifting near the camera and turning it over the home button end of the frame.

Lay the LCD down onto a clean, soft, lint-free surface to allow access to the display cables.
