STEP 1
Turn off the laptop and remove the battery.
In order to remove and replace the LCD screen and inverter board we'll have to disassemble the display panel.
You'll find two screw seals in lower left and right corners of the display panel.

STEP 2
Remove both screw seals and screws found under them.
These screws securing the screen bezel to the display cover.

STEP 3
I found it's way easier to remove the screen bezel if you remove the speaker cover first.
Insert a flathead screwdriver under the cover and lift it up.
Continue separating the cover from the laptop with your fingers. |

STEP 4
Remove the speaker cover.

STEP 5
Now you can start separating the screen bezel.
A small piece of soft plastic (I use a guitar pick) can help to separate the bezel from the display cover.

STEP 6
Remove the screen bezel. |

STEP 7
Now you can get access to the inverter board which is mounted below the LCD screen. |
