    Should be pretty easy, you will need to take the Top piece above your keyboard off, there are a few screws underneath the computer that hold this in. Once you pop that off, you will need to unscrew the screws that hold the hinges of the laptop on. Then you will need to unplug it (its only one cable), remove it, and swap.

    reverse for installation.
