Introduction

Need to replace something inside your Zelotes C-18 mouse? This guide will teach you how to open your device up.

What you need

Use an opening pick to gently pry off the mouse feet and stickers on the bottom of the mouse to expose four hidden screws.
Keep the feet to reattach later, or replace them with new ones (spare pads are usually included).

Carefully separate the top and bottom casing—DO NOT PULL QUICKLY, as ribbon cables connect both halves.
The ribbon cable connectors have small plastic locking tabs that hold them in place.
Using a spudger, carefully lift the locking tab by gently alternating pressure on each side until it’s in the unlocked position
Do not remove the tab completely, as it is attached to the connector.
Detach the ribbon cables by gently pulling them straight (perpendicularly) away from the motherboard.
You should not need much force — if you do, the tab may not be fully unlocked.
When reattaching, insert the cable back into its socket and press the locking tab down into place using the flat end of the spudger.
