    I need to access my lcd panel to remove a nasty coffee stain inside the screen (between backlight and panel). I was able to find and remove 2 screws on the top right and left hand side of the panel. Unfortunatey, I still cannot remove the bezel. I wonder if there are additional screws. Can anyone help??

    sounds like on this model the entire lid assembly needs to be removed from the laptop in order to remove the lcd bezel. This is pretty common in designs with the "drop down" hinges.
