The tools used were a torx 6 screwdriver as well as a small swiss army knife.]]> photo Tue, 08 Aug 2006 18:30:45 +0200 http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0611.JPG.html http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0611.JPG.html
The unit from the back. You could further remove parts but this is enough to change the cover.]]> photo Tue, 08 Aug 2006 18:30:45 +0200 http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0610.JPG.html http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0610.JPG.html
The naked unit with the keyboard removed.]]> photo Tue, 08 Aug 2006 18:30:45 +0200 http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0609.JPG.html http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0609.JPG.html
Nice overview of the removed parts.]]> photo Tue, 08 Aug 2006 18:30:44 +0200 http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0608.JPG.html http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0608.JPG.html
Attached to the front cover there is a small operator logo clip. You can remove that too. I didn't since it is slightly glued to the cover.]]> photo Tue, 08 Aug 2006 18:29:00 +0200 http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0607.JPG.html http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0607.JPG.html
Now you can flip your E61 and remove the front cover.]]> photo Tue, 08 Aug 2006 18:29:00 +0200 http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0606.JPG.html http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0606.JPG.html
Remove those two torx screws. Again, these are torx 6 screws.]]> photo Tue, 08 Aug 2006 18:29:00 +0200 http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0605.JPG.html http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0605.JPG.html
The back case removed.]]> photo Tue, 08 Aug 2006 18:29:00 +0200 http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0604.JPG.html http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0604.JPG.html
This is a little tricky and needs to be done carefully. Look for something like a small swiss army knife :) . It worked perfectly for me. You will have to lift the cover gently where the three markings on the backcover are. After that the cover should snap out and it should be possible to remove it without applying any force.]]> photo Tue, 08 Aug 2006 18:29:00 +0200 http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0602.JPG.html http://blog.petralli.net/photos/v/e61apart/IMG_0602.JPG.html
