Introduction

This guide will show you how to replace a dented or damaged bottom panel on an Asus ZenBook UX303U laptop.

    • Remove the two round rubber feet at the hinge-edge of the laptop.

    The process took me about 30 minutes. If I were to have to do it again then I could probably do it in 10 minutes now that I know what is involved!

    • Remove the eleven 4 mm Phillips #00 screws from the back panel.

    These screws on other models are Torx T5 or T6, not Phillips

    T4 screws on all but the two under the rear rubber feet; those are Phillips PH0 (and my model had two square rubber feet).

    Gregg Stanley -

    Agree. Same as my laptop.

    • Using a plastic opening tool pry the back panel off of the laptop.

    I lift more than the last photo shows. Dark rubber with plots, visible on photo are blocking the opening.

    Mine was also stuck at the back with a bit of tape (for grounding?) I did my best to make sure it was replaced during re-assembly.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Some models may utilize Phillips #00 screws, but mine (and many others based on what I’ve now read) utilize Torx T5 screws around the edges of the panel.
