nice guide - Just one thing that needs to be added is that there are 5 small metal retaining washers (4 x double and one single) on the underside of the trackpad unit, which can just be seen in the 2nd picture in STEP 23 that need to be carefully removed and put back in place on the replacement unit. If these are NOT moved to the new unit, it will not sit properly.
