Apple keyboard replacement MacBook Pro and Air. The easy way!
Replacing the keyboard on a MacBook Pro or MacBook Air can be a challenge! I have found a trick that may be very helpful for you to remove the rivets. Tools needed? A flat screwdriver and a hammer! yes, you've read it correctly. A hammer.
In most of the case, the RIVETS ( the pins holding the Keyboard ) do not come all the way and the get stuck, leaving the pins on the holes that you need to use to put the screws
With this Trick, you will solve the problem

Hey Gonzalo, how can I order the metal strip? With regards Ruud, from the Netherlands
Instructions unclear, I accidentally bought a windows cumpooter
????
Worked for me when i thought all hope was lost!
How we find out who was cheaping at Apple and not doing the construction with that metal plate from the very beginning? So we could cut his balls off. Come on, they charged a fortune for the iMacs and than they put in those shitty plastic washers instead of a metal plate that would have cost them nothing more than that plastic.
not as easy as it looks. I had to support the back of the monitor with objects that kept the angle of the monitor in a position that held the hinge closer to the screw holes. With a lot of strength, I was able to hold the spring under the bracket and screwed on one screw. The other spring I had to pull down and twist the bracket over it, then with much force, push and tighten the other screw in place.
yes, That's how i did it, as u cant see how heavy the springs are, this is the best solution as I did this repair with a DIY plate and it bend once o try to fit it. that's why i manufacture these laser-cut plates Thanks !!!! 😊
My thumbs were still sore two weeks after doing the repair from trying to push down on the washer against the spring. I just could not do it with the hinge still in the machine. So, I just took it out - the set of nine screws and six mounting screws. That reduced the amount of spring travel needed to get the screw in.
yes, the spring is really strong!!! That's why i push it with the screwdriver, not with my fingers
I'm using this method to remove the kb rivets. What I thought is actually happening ... shearing the shaft above the kb surface. Removed 6; sheared 4. I know the kb doesn't need them all ultimately, but if too many are missing, there will be issues. Some now, some later. :::: 10 min later - I found how to position the screwdriver until I can get them out reliably with at most 2 taps, most of the time a single.Take the screwdriver as low as it can go. It does not have to be flat; only most of the way to that point. The reason is when you hit it, it wants to pop up, to ride over the rivet. But it doesn't, and it takes the rivet with it.
yes!!!!! i did another video showing exactly that. check my other videos czcams.com/video/SeSQ0DpG1HA/video.html
Hi Gonzalo, im in UK can you supply these adhesive strips
hi yes sure , as it cant be folded postage may be a bit expensive. probable ll includ around £20
@@Apple-Bay do you have an online shop? would you do discount on multiple order 21.5 and 27imacs, usually go to ifixit
Still making these?
Здраствуйте подскажите зачем на пиде 410 15 контакт
Really? Replacing a plastic bracket by another plastic bracket? I would just cut and drill my own bracket from a thin steel bar. Now when the size was measure, they just punch ten of thousands of those and sell it cheaply.
i replace it with a metal bracket and yes i did make thousands of them and I'm selling at 5 box on ebay ( i trade mark it ) Cash4mac_uk
Hola Gonzalo, donde puedo conseguir las cintas adhesivas que utilizaste? Saludos desde Argentina.
hola , la verdad que no se en argentina pero yo las vendo aquí
Any updates on this project?
It is sold now 😂
Great job, can't believe Apple used a plastic bracket, which with the tension was guaranteed to break. Thanks!
Does it work with 21" inch iMac?
For the 21.5” you can use just a normal washer as it’s only one screw
Thank You so much i really apreciatte the video!!
Did you custom that head?
YES .. CHECK MY OTHERS VIDEOS i show you how to do the same job with a screwdriver and a little hammer
@@Apple-Bay can you send the link
Name that tool?
Very good video, thanks!
Hi.Can you say what size the metal plate is? I'm talking about how long, wide and thick it is. Thank you
hi , you can buy it on ebay for 4.99
Nice machine my friend 🙏🙏
Thank you for the detailed video!
Buenas Gonzalo. Hace semanas tengo la idea de construir mi propia estación BGA infrarroja y con tu vídeo que recién encontré ayer me terminé de animar. Podrías listar todos los componentes usados ? Lo ensamblaré en una caja de PC vacía así como tú lo hiciste en la caja de ese mac. Saludos desde Lima Perú y espero tu respuesta ✌️
Hola . la verdad que no me acuerdo de todo pero ya la vendi hace anos voy a ver si encuento los planos pero creo que saldria mas varato comprar una estacion usada
@@Apple-Bay he visto muchos videos de estaciones caseras y la tuya es similar a otra que había visto pero la tuya si tiene la parte superior de calentador. Si tengo los nombres de los componentes para comprar y ensamblar e hice un presupuesto de máximo 150 dólares a menos comprando las piezas en China. Lo único que no me queda claro es como adaptar esa pieza de bicicleta para la parte superior, pero la pieza con rieles si la tengo e incluso yo mismo se la cambie al mueble de mi teclado. Por otro lado he visto uno fabricado cuyo modelo es T862++ y no pasa de los 200 dólares, también comprando en china. Lo único malo es el envío para Perú, que si pasan los 200 dólares y es muy pero muy caro. Voy a ver la forma como fabricarme mi propia estación de calor infrarroja
How can I get one of those please?
