    • Four 12.7 mm Phillips #2 screws near the back of the device.

    • Turn the iHome 180 degrees so the speaker grille is facing you. Carefully lift the bottom case away from the rest of the body and tilt it as shown.

    • Using a pair of tweezers, detach the white ribbon cable. Make sure to pull on the ribbon, not on the head.

    • The lower case can now be completely removed from the device!

    • Two 9.5 mm Phillips #2 screws near the speaker grille.

    • If it seems too difficult to remove, chances are that a screw is still attached. Make sure you've removed every screw listed before proceeding to this step.

    • Pull the back adapter cover off.
