3. Repeat for the top rubber.

4. Unscrew all the screws from the laptop, including the ones that were under the rubber "legs".
5. There should be 11 screws in total. (4 under the upper leg, 3 under the lower one, and 4 that were not under rubber).

6. Carefully insert a pick under the touchpad of the laptop.

7. Continue inserting picks all the way around the laptop.

8. Pull apart the cover and the body of the laptop.
9. If you find resistance, reduce the angle of the screen hinge, since the hinge might be "clamping" the cover.
