You can now ease off the motherboard carefully, being sure not to rip any cables.
Now, use a heat gun or hair dryer to warm the adhesive holding the screen assembly to the front housing. Use medium heat on the front of the screen, consistently moving around the screen edges. This should take no longer than 1 minute.
Use a safe open pry tool to release the screen assembly from the housing. Reheat if the adhesive is still strong.
Remove the screen from the housing and replace.
