All of the ribbon cables listed will need to be removed - thankfully, they are all snap connectors, meaning they simply lift off of the motherboard to disconnect

Removal of the top 4 snap connectors is straightforward - on the right side of each connector, insert a prying tool and pry upwards. The battery cable (right corner) requires slightly more force

Look at picture 2 and 3 - bend the NFC antenna (thin black piece) upwards to reveal copper tape bridging the connector and the motherboard metal. Peel this up from the connector

Straightforward removal, see top 4 (red) connectors

Pry from underneath where the wires are. Shouldn't take too much force, but it is small and likely brittle so be careful
