Remove the bezel

Start removing the bezel. Insert a plastic pick between the bezel and the LCD

Using a Phillips screwdriver remove the four screws. Place the screen on the keyboard

Disconnect the video cable

Peel off the clear tape securing the video connector. Open the connector’s bracket.

cable, close the connector’s bracket. Secure it with clear tape

Install the new screen

The new screen has no mounting tabs and we are going to use adhesive strips which
you can buy on our site: https://www.laptopscreen.com/English/section/tools/
Clean both sides of the screen and the back cover with rubbing alcohol. Apply adhesive
strips to the sides of the new screen. Remove protective film from adhesive.
Lift the screen up and apply some pressure to catch the adhesive. Remove protective
film from the screen

Replace the bezel

Start at the bottom then go around the perimeter snapping tabs back in place.
Make sure the bezel is snapped-in at the bottom.
