Note: This is a guide for replacing the entire display assembly, NOT just the display. If you are attempting to remove the display (like I was), gently snap off the display bezel, remove the four screws holding in the display, disconnect the display cable, connect the new display, screw it back in, and snap the display bezel back into place. Opening the bottom of the machine isn’t necessary.
