Just one connector and two screws sets the little system speaker free.

Beneath the speaker, we find some antenna cables, but unfortunately no modular AirPort card—in what is becoming a trend, these are socketed right to the main board.

Alas, AirPort cards are just a distant memory now that logic boards have assimilated all wireless functions.

From here we set to work freeing the heatsink, twirling away Torx screws and exposing the paste-y (soldered) CPU.

One last screw, and the port cover is free, uncovering ... the ports. As it departs, it takes some antenna hardware with it.
