MacBook Pro 15" Retina Display Mid 2012 Feet Replacement

Remove the following P5 pentalobe screws securing the lower case to the MacBook Pro:

Eight 3.0 mm

Two 2.3 mm

Lifting from the edge nearest the clutch cover, lift the lower case off the MacBook Pro.

Set the lower case aside.

Peel away any stickers from the backside of the rear case covering the feet you have chosen to replace.

Remove any broken or damaged feet.

If the old foot is difficult to remove, use a hair dryer or a heat gun to apply some heat to the area and loosen the adhesive.

Scrub the foot cavity with adhesive remover to remove any remaining adhesive.

Wipe the foot cavity with an isopropyl alcohol prep pad to remove any cleaner residue and prep the area for the adhesive on the new foot.

Peel a replacement foot from the plastic backing.

Align the new foot inside the cavity.

Lay the foot down while keeping it properly aligned.

Check for proper alignment from the inside of the case. The alignment nub should be slightly visible through the alignment hole.

Press the new foot into place firmly with your finger, then apply pressure by pinching the foot from either side of the case with your finger and your thumb.

Maintain pressure for 30 seconds to set the pressure-sensitive adhesive.

Repeat the last seven steps for any remaining broken or worn feet.
