    • Remove the two Phillips screws (2.83 mm) from the left side panel of the camera casing.

    • The left panel can now be removed. However, one piece of tape attaches it to the camera, so a spudger may be required to ease the panels off.

    • Repeat for the right side panel of the camera.

    • Keep track of which screws go where. There are a couple sets of screws to take out and they are all small and look the same.
