Removing the backplate

Remove the four silver screws from the back of the controller using a Phillips #00 screwdriver.
Hold the controller as depicted in the third picture with your thumbs placed on the top of the controller. Use your thumbs to pry apart the backplate from the rest of the controller.
You may need to use a bit of pressure to remove the backplate.
