How do I fix lid misalignment with body?
Hello all, I am planning to replace the thermal paste on my MacBook Pro 2015 15” model that I recently bought. I noticed today that there is a very small but still noticeable misalignment between the lid and the main body of the MacBook. Essentially the lid is slightly retracted compared to the main body at the front and overhangs a tiny amount at the back. This is a very minor issue but I thought I might as well fix it whilst opening it up to reapply thermal paste.
My question is how exactly would I do this? There is already the guide here that shows how to replace the top assembly, however all I want to do is realign it. I saw a YouTube video earlier where the guy undos all three hinge screws on either side, makes sure the lid and main body are flush again, and simply tightens up the screws. Would this be sufficient? The guide says you need to undo several connectors, however as I am not actually removing the lid does this need to be done or can I simply open up the back, undo the screws, realign and put it back together again?

Esta é uma boa pergunta?
