I had to partially loosen the motherboard. That guide is a little confusing because its an extract from the full removal of the motherboard. I loosened the motherboard and connecters and gently lifted it with a spider to make space to the connector to pass between the midframe and the motherboard.

Could not get in with the pick or in from the side. Targeted the bottom of the phone with the iOpener and managed to gently create some space for the pick with the opener tool.
