This procedure assumes that you have removed the palmrest assembly from the base
assembly and that you have removed the hard-disk drive heat shield and touch pad
assembly. To remove the speakers (see Figure 28), perform the following steps:
1.
Remove any tape securing the speaker cables.
2.
Remove the three 4-mm screws securing the left speaker cover.
NOTE: Before removing the speaker cables and wire harness, be sure to note their
routing through the slots and pins so you can correctly reinstall the components.
3.
Remove the left speaker cover, speaker, and speaker cable.
