Two things to add:

1. The two screws hidden under the DVD drive on the edge of the case must be removed.

2. It's easier to unlatch the ribbons for the keyboard, trackpad, and power button than it is to try and work around them. There are holes in the laptop base right over the ribbon connectors, so it's easy to re-connect them.

I don't have the screws that hold the hard drive in place. Is there any way to get them seperatly?

This thing is impossible to take apart I swear to god. I ended up just ripping it apart to remove the HDD and screen.
