Would these same steps be followed for the Dell XPS 15 2023 (9530) model?

Matt - Contestar

While we can't say for sure without having the device in our hands, the back cover comes off relatively the same between newer XPS models. A Torx driver and unclipping the front half of the cover will more than likely get you into the laptop.

Hi everyone, first of all I wanted to appreciate the accurate and informative information regarding the replacement, but I had a question about changing the bottom cover. Since there is the number of mariculation on the aluminium cover, won't it be risky changing it? Or at least if you ask dell, will thay make another cover for you with your matriculation num? How much does it cost more less? Thank you in advanced for your gentle responce.
