47

The MacBook Pro (17-inch original) and MacBook Pro (17-inch Core 2 Duo) have six insert-

21.

tabs along the edge of the keyboard well PLUS two more sets of tabs on each side. The
following steps show how to release these tabs so that the keyboard can be removed.

If needed, push through one of the top center keyboard screw holes, with the point of a

22.

black stick, to bow out the keyboard slightly.

Important: Ensure that the hole used is a screw hole, or damage to other sensitive
components may result. A black stick is used to avoid damaging the screw boss threads—
do not use a metal tool.
