ID: 212271
Description: Prerequisite only guide to remove the bottom...
Steps:
- Use a P5 pentalobe driver to remove the eight screws securing the bottom cover:
- Six 4.1 mm‑long screws
- Two 4.5 mm‑long screws
- The bottom cover is held in place with two clips, one on each side.
- Use your fingers to pry up the bottom cover from the top‑right corner, near the USB‑C ports, until the clip along the right edge of the laptop pops up.
- If you're having trouble, use the flat end of a spudger to pry up the corner until you can grab it with your fingers. You can also slide an opening pick down each edge to release the clips.
- Repeat this process on the left side to release its clip.
- Pick up the bottom cover and lift it off the MacBook.
