-
Start by flipping the dock upside down.
-
-
-
Take your Jimmy and push it in between the bottom cover and the body. Push down to lift the bottom cover.
-
-
-
Carefully remove the clips on the side by pushing up with the Jimmy. If needed, use the plastic Opening Picks to keep the back piece from popping back into place.
Note: make sure that you are lifting with your jimmy the deep-down metal part together with the upper plastic cover. Otherwise you’ll break it apart - it is connected with each other by the bellow described phillips screws.
-
-
-
-
Remove the dock completely from the plastic frame.
-
-
-
The silver adhesive is covering two Phillips screws at opposite ends of the dock. Peel back the adhesive on these areas and remove both screws.
-
-
-
Remove the back plate once the screws are out.
-
Remove four Phillips #000 screws surrounding the Lightning connector.
-
-
-
A similar adhesive can be found covering the plug for the Lightning connector. Peel the adhesive back and gently lift the cable to disconnect the connector.
