You need a Torx T6 and Phillips PH00 screwdriver. Proceed at your own risk. You can damage the ribbon cable.

STEP 1: REMOVE THE MOUSE FEET & SCREWS

  1. Use a plastic pry tool or the cross screwdriver to carefully remove the PTFE mouse feet. This will expose the hidden screws beneath them.
  2. Unscrew all visible screws using a Torx T6 screwdriver.

  3. Slowly lift the top shell but do not fully remove it yet, cables are attached to the PCB.
  4. Locate and carefully unplug any ribbon that links the top shell to the bottom PCB.
