Excelente… easy and simply.
At Step 3. Replace the memory now that it is exposed. You don't have to do steps 4-5, I don't think you have to remove the 10 small screws either.
Just the Philips under the foot tabs and carefully remove the keyboard, pull the tabs back that secure the memory and replace with new memory.
