there are several flaws with this steps.

screws that aren’t being mentioned, it doesn’t mention the thermal compound on the fan assembly and it also fails to mention a ribbon cable at the top and a small conector close to the wifi antena.

there is a lot of tape that need to be removed and should ideally be replaced
