Does this part come with instructions on how to remove the old bottom case?

No .. It just comes with the part .. Their are really good tutorials online though

No it does not. I suggest you go to ifixit.com. They have very detailed instructions with pictures. Be careful when ordering this as there 2 versions of this case and they are not interchangeable.

It did not! It only includes the piece. If you are trying to replace it, I will recommend you to go to an expert because I tried changing it myself and either way I ended up paying 150 for someone to put it in place.

Nope. However you can find excellent disassembly-reassembly instructions in YouTube. Some hardware handling skills are required as there are few micro connectors that can't be just force pulled out. As a Mac Service agent I found this part really durable and an exactly "drop-in" replacement part.

My case did not come with instructions. But I believe there is a tear down video on YouTube. If you go step by step with that and understand some basic hardware do's and dont's, you should have no problem.

There is a top and bottom. There are little tabs on the sides you can pull them apart there and the rubber cover stretches over and has little tabs to hold it in place. Not dumb at all. That was my only complaint was lack of instruction. The case is nice once you get it on. Good luck.

Have you tried looking on the back of the unit or even the bottom? If not there you may have to pull the case off. Good luck!

First you need to separate the old case in half. You need either a small screw driver or a small key will also work. Pry it open near the key ring hole. Do this to the old and new case. Then you can remove the electronics and place them in the new case. Finally, then you snap the new case together.

There should be a rectangle about a cm long between the two plastic cases where they meet on the side. Try to unhook all the latches by pulling on that first then going all around the edges doing the same. The rubber underneath should come off easy once the plastic is off.

After you remove the screws, take a knife and gently pry the edges of the back of the case till they pop. Both sides do come off though.

Hi Carol. At the bottom is a small indentation where you put a coin or screwdriver and gently but firmly pry the top and bottom apart. Hope this helps.

There are screws in the top, sides and the back at the top border. Just take them out and lift the case from the sides. It should come right off. I did it to remove a disc that was jammed.

No, but it is readily apparent which way it goes in. Take a photo of the old one before you remove it and you should be able to get it in right. Took all of ten minutes.

There were no instructions with the part that I received. However, I found a very good video on YouTube that give great instructions to remove the old base and replace it.

No, there was no diagram or instructions that came with it, however it was not difficult to figure out how to replace the broken part.

I don't think so, I've had mine for about a year. I can't unscrew the bottom and that'd be the only place.

The instructions are in the user manual. If this is missing, you can find them online by searching for the model number and the words "user manual". As I remember, you have to take out the reservoir, unscrew the filter back case from the base and remove the filter from the bottom. After I did it the first time, It was pretty easy.

Yes, there were instructions, but I'm not much help because I bought for a replacement and since it didn't fit, I just set it aside as a loss. Sorry......

One screw on the bottom and it slides out easy. Slide the new one in and replace screw. Very easy.
