    Keys usually have tabs and are removable, with care.

    First, to remove the keyboard, usually you only have to remove the K> screws on the belly of the computer, turn it around, and push in the tabs along the top of the keyboard. (This might be different for a spillproof keyboard, though. my experience is with normal keyboards only)

    For how to remove keys you might want to check this (although I'm not sure how much it applies to the V1S)
