Helaas blijkt de T5 Torx schroevendraaier aan de schroeven van de bevestigingsbeugels geen grip te krijgen. Wat dan gedaan?

Use the flat end of a spudger to pry up the top edge of the right half of the outer shell, behind the component cover and near the seam in the center, until it is unclipped from the headset.
-
-
-
Grasp the right half the outer shell and pull it to the right and toward the front of the headset until you feel the clips on the front of the cover release.
-
If the shell is difficult to remove, try prying along the seam with the flat end of a spudger to release the clips.
-
-
-
Repeat the last three steps for the left side of the outer shell and remove it.
-
-
-
Use tweezers to remove the clear tape over all four of the sensor array cable connectors.
-
-
-
Use the pointed end of a spudger to flip up the small locking flap on one of the sensor array ZIF connectors.
-
Slide the cable straight out of its socket on the motherboard.
This guide is grossly incomplete. Do NOT try to pull up the sensor array after taking these five screws off. There are 8 more screws that have to be removed, as well as 2 tabs that need to be pushed before the sensor array comes off.
-Two screws on the bottom (by the camera) to each side. There are four screws here, but only the outermost two need to be taken off. See the two sensors on the bottom? The screws under the outside corner of each sensor are the ones you remove.
-Two screws on the top, to the right and left of the cable opening.
-Four screws on the back, to the left and right of the lenses. Turn the Vive around, the screws are deep inside four holes.
-Finally, two tabs on the bottom by the camera. If you look closely you will see them!
-
-
-
Repeat the previous step for the remaining three sensor array cables to disconnect the remaining cables.
Sure, but how do you get a replacement array?
It starts with “lift the sensor array" but how am I supposed to do that? Its not just lifting off after unscrewing & disconnecting. What am I missing here?

Do you know where I can buy a replacement camera? Mine seems to be dead.
