Lift the display up and away from the upper case, minding any brackets or cables that may get caught.

Insert a plastic opening tool underneath the black rubber gasket at the bottom left corner of the display assembly.
-
Gently pry the wide edge of the gasket up from the back case.
-

Starting with the freed corner, pull the left gasket off the left side of the display assembly.
-
-
-
Continue pulling the display gasket off the display assembly across the top edge.

Pull the gasket off the bottom edge of the display to completely free it and set it aside.

-
Before starting, be sure to clean the display glass with a lint-free cloth moistened with a mild solution; it will make the suction cup adhere better, and will make checking for dust on reassembly easier.
-
With the heat gun set to low, start by heating the outer black border near the upper right corner of the glass panel.
-
-

-
With the panel sufficiently heated, fasten a heavy-duty suction cup near the lower right corner of the display glass.
-
To attach the suction cups we sell, first position the suction cup with the movable handle parallel to the face of the glass panel. While lightly holding the suction cup against the glass, raise the movable handle until it is parallel with the other handle.
-
Gently lift the corner of the display glass enough to insert a guitar pick between it and the display assembly.
-
Use the guitar pick to gently pry up the adhesive securing the front glass to the display.
-
Pry up the glass panel along the right edge of the display up to the halfway point.

Leave the guitar pick in place halfway up the right side of the display and remove the suction cup.

Use a heat gun to soften the adhesive under the display glass along the right and top edges of the display.
-
Attach a suction cup to the upper right corner of the front glass panel.
-
Pull up on the glass panel while you use a second guitar pick to separate it from the rest of the display assembly.
-
Continue working along the right edge of the front display glass until it is separated from the display.
-
-
-
Work along the top edge of the display assembly, carefully prying the adhesive up with the guitar pick.

Stop prying about an inch before you reach the iSight camera. Leave the guitar pick in place and remove the suction cup.
-
-
-
Repeat steps 22 through 24 for the left side and the left top edge of the display.

After prying up the three edges of the display glass, you should have four guitar picks resting underneath the panel, as shown.

-
Flip the LCD over and lay it face down, being careful to not put too much stress on the display cable.

I own the early 2011 anti-glare version (MC725LL/A) and the display assembly is completely different. As it is the anti-glare version there is no glass panel. There is no "wide edge of the gasket" (Re: Step 18) on the anti-glare version, so I am unsure at which point should I insert my opening tool and to begin prying at. After that, I also need instructions on how to remove the aluminum front bezel. Can someone please update the related steps for the anti-glare version?
