If the LCD display on the Pixel 2 is anything like the one on the Pixel, then it will be almost impossible the glass from the lcd screen. The LCD screen on the Pixel is paper thin. So, unless you have 1000s of $ of equipment and extensive practice, the screen is almost impossible to separate without breaking the lcd screen.

A 1382 battery should work in a MBP 15" 2010. Both batteries are physically the same size and have the battery connector in the same place. The only difference is that the cable on the A1382 battery is longer than the cable on the A1321 battery.

If both Macbook's were 15" or 13" then you could swap them, provided the layouts match. You can't swap a 15" for a 13" keyboard or vice versa, as the keyboard connector is in different places.

Hi Power supply board part numbers are: 661-6048, 661-5543. I found boards available for sale on ebay and maybe available for other apple spares suppliers if you search using the part numbers.

All Aluminium Macbook Pros (inc. unibody) have removable and replacable keyboards and trackpads. Many sellers on ebay sell both parts on there own; you don't have to replace the whole top case, trackpad and keyboard, if all you want/need to replace is the keyboard. Make sure you get the correct keyboard layout to match the top case, and vice versa.

All A1278, A1286 and A1297 macbooks have replaceable keyboards.

The instructions seem clear to me. I think you might of missed step 32; thats why you damaged the digitizer FPC connector.

Hi

Answers:

Q1. You can remove the upper display assembly from the top case, then you can place the top case flat on your work surface.

2) buy a screw extractor set.

Hope this helps.

Where are you?

As far I can tell the QWERTZ (DE) and QWERTY (UK) keyboards have the same physical layout and and the keyboard connector is in the same place.

Phillips #00 is the correct screwdriver for the lower case. Maybe the one you have is worn or badly made.

The guide has been revised to include the correct steps to remove the logic board, optical drive and centre bracket.

Yes, you have to remove every single, little and different screw from logical board.

It is necessary to remove the logic board, optical drive, centre bracket, subwoofer and keyboard backlight in order to remove the keyboard.
