Now the optical drive should be removed and still connected to the circuit board which was underneath the buttons.
Desolder the optical drive wires from the circuit board.
If the wires need to be removed from the circuit board, you may need to use an adhesive solvent to fully dissolve the glue.
For proper soldering and desoldering techniques reference How To Solder and Desolder Connections.
Soldering requires the iron to be at hot temperatures and can cause burns. Wear safety glasses as needed. Be extremely careful with the wires and board in this step as they could melt, burn, or break.
