To remove these screw covers, take your small flat head screw driver and insert it on the side of the screw cover sliding it down the separation between the rubber and the plastic. These rubber screw hole covers are held on with double sided sticky tape which may need to be replaced upon reassembly.

There are usually at least 4 screws and sometimes 6 screws that hold the LCD display in place.
8. The laptop LCD repair is almost complete. You must now tilt the screen forward to display the back of the screen. There is going to be a ribbon cable that connects to two parts of the screen.
