Remove the ten silver T6 Torx screws securing the display (five on each side). On the right a 9.6 mm screw secures the display data cable, also on the left the screw closest to the inside is 9.6 mm. The others are 7.8 mm.
Don't forget to replace the hinge end caps when reinstalling the display assembly. The end caps are side specific, so be sure that the posts are facing towards the lower case.
