Steps:

1. Use a keycap puller to remove the cap covering the switch you want to replace.

2. Latch the switch puller onto the switch, and squeeze lightly for grip.

7. Using a plastic pry tool, gently separate the aluminum top frame from the bottom base.
8. Unplug both connectors attaching the bottom case to the PCB.

9. Remove the five 3.8mm Phillips #1 screws holding the PCB to the top plate.
10. Separate the old PCB from the plate.
