From memory it involved …...
16 small size 001 Phillips screws
4 long 001 Phillips screws
2 small Torx screws on the battery compartment....the hardest part was separating the casing after all the screws were out. Well, that and doing the whole thing with Tommy coming into the room every 15 seconds and saying "is it done yet?"

Some of the best money I've ever spent. I usually keep my tools in the garage, but this particular set is always close at hand

Mega you replaced the processor? Aren't those soddered down to the logic board in that model (and I think all models)? What did you replace it with?

I think I have the little red insert part of this and it's great, though it is missing a torx I need to replace the scales on my Southard Spydie.

Ahh, I zoomed in and copped immediately when I saw the rest of the bits, thanks for the tip.

Failing that, I have a Prime membership and get free 2-day shipping, so can also proxy.

No soldering required (I'm English, and a military electronic engineer, trust me it's soldering not soddering, that is another word for buggery :o ). I simply repositioned the connector which supplies power to the display, keyboard, track pad and RAM which had worked it's way loose. The damn thing is right in the middle of the computer though, you literally have to take it all apart to get to it.

Ah. So then you didn't replace the processor?
