If you don't mind me describing the process I can tell you how to open one up.
1. Remove the 4 rubber feet pads on the bottom of your laptop.
2. Remove the battery and unscrew the 4 screws that holds the memory plate.
3. Unscrew the 12 screws around the bottom perimeter of the laptop.
4. Unscrew the 4 flat screws that is on the opposite side of the screws holding the memory plate.
5. Unscrew two screws that are near the RAM module that was under the memory plate.
6. Put the laptop right side up and open the lid.
7. Take a flat-sided object and carefully lift the top keyboard cover open.
8. Remove carefully the keyboard and touchpad ribbon.
That should get you into the guts of the laptop.
Here is the maintenance guide for some visuals. However, disregard the 60 screws to remove the keyboard step. That is totally unnecessary.
