Flip the device over so that the underside is facing up.
-
Remove the six 3.5 mm T5 Torx screws.

-
Pry off the back cover using the plastic opening tool.
-
Loosen the back cover in multiple spots using the opening tool, then remove the whole back.
The gap is so small that I wasn’t able to insert anything to pry the cover up. The suction cup tool lifted the cover off easily.
There is a very convenient spot to begin the prying process. Up by the hinge, where the metal back turns in perpendicular to the edge to get around the hinge mechanism, there is a gap between the cover and the rest of the laptop where it can be pried up easily. From there it is easy to run a tool and widen the gap all the way around.
I tried Thomas's suggestion first, and it worked like a charm: the suction cup took it right off.
Instead of pushing the cup against the laptop I "pulled it flat" and placed it against the back, so it'd just suck onto it. (Didn't want to deform the laptop cover) -

Remove the screw ( 2 mm with a 5 mm head) that connect the SSD to the motherboard using a Phillips #00 screwdriver.

Find the Wi-Fi card located on the right just above the battery. It is a green chip with a white label that says "Intel 9260" somewhere on it.
-
-
-
Use a Phillips #00 screwdriver to remove the single 2 mm screw that attaches the card to the motherboard.
This step is not needed unless you are transferring the card, the post that it is attached to is fixed to the main board not the case.

-
Gently pull or use the iFixit opening tool to detach the black and white wires from the card.
-
-
-
Pinch the card on either side and pull to the right to unplug it from the motherboard.
Again unless you are transferring the card it does not need to be removed as it is fixed to the main board.

Remove the four 2 mm Phillips #00 screws from the fans themselves.
This is another redundant step since this is only to secure the fans to the heat pipe fan housing. And really tiny screws to lose.

Using the Halberd Spudger, gently lift the black tab on top of each of the five ZIF connectors for the ribbon cables. Then pull the cables out from the connectors.

This is a great step-by-step walk-through. I went into replace a keyboard with all the wrong tools with me and I found out the client ordered the wrong keyboard thankfully no liquid damage inside. I found a few steps that were not required unless you were doing a parts swap to another system. I managed to instead clean out the keys without breaking the key caps and somehow the wrong keyboard had the right donor parts to fix the arrow key.
Can I really say I completed this when I ended up not replacing the keyboard?
FYI keep your liquids away from your computer!
I do have to say this system is pretty serviceable, cough if the manufacturer has parts.
Thank you for this step by step. It worked a treat!
