Hi, I need to replace the keyboard cover on my laptop, the plastic bits on the casing that contain the metal connectors that you screw the back and hinges onto have all broken off so the back casing and hinges cannot be attached so the laptop comes apart when I open it! Anyway, I received a new cover and followed the video instructions online to remove all the interior parts and everything went perfectly until the last stage of removing the keyboard unit to put it into the new cover. I can't see any way to do this. it looks like the keyboard sealed unit is held in place all around it with black plastic studs rather than screws so there is no way to remove it other than breaking these studs. Am I missing something? Everything else removed easily, how do I remove the keyboard to install it on the new cover?

 

Regards
