Framework Laptop 13 Bezel Installation

ID: 211922

Description:

Steps:

  1. Before continuing, check if cables next to the hinges are routed properly:
  2. The Display Cable should be routed just above the hinge without any large gaps.
  3. Your Display Cable might come with a white sticker. This doesn't affect the routing.
  4. The Display Cable should be routed between the metal clips.
  5. The Webcam Cable should be routed just above the hinge without any large gaps and shouldn't overlap with the antenna cables.
  6. If the cables aren't routed properly, the Bezel won't sit flat and you risk damaging the Bezel and the Display during reassembly.
