Note on my iPad Air there was a little plastic cover around the front facing camera. Take that off an put it to one side as you will need it later for reassembly.

Do not forget to clean off the old glue around the edges. it takes a while but is worthwhile to make the new screen with the new adhesive stick better.

This is the most tricky part of the repair - don’t over force the separation. Don’t over heat the pads with the iron too as it needs to be soldered back. Soldering back is straight forward. I recommend you have an iron with a decent tip.

There is also a plastic waster around the hole which can be lifted and placed on the new screen - not just the grommet.
