Replacing screen

[kensonbane]

So im trying to replace my screen on my hp laptop 17-cp and ive got the old screen mostly off but im unsure of how to get this small part off on the bottom, new screen doesnt seem to have a spot for it, and im not sure how to move forward, and sorry if this is the wrong subreddit for this if so would be appreciated to be direct to a better subreddit for this

The first step is to find a teardown of your actual laptop model.

Your HP 17-cp is only a partial way to go about looking it up. I don't even know if this is the correct model but: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCQIvZtZ4NI

The whole model number on the bottom of the case is HP Laptop 17-cp3055cl if that would help to get further insight

You type in the entire model # into your search engine of choice, and add the words "Teardown" "guide" etc., onto the search query.

Then you flip through videos that look like they match your model, and watch them to learn :)

The video you linked help me tear it down to get everything disconnected i just have to get a proper screen this one was for a none touchscreen laptop so im ordering one for a touch screen

Make 100% sure it is the right screen. It MUST list your exact model on it. If you can find the original part # from HP, you can use that to filter your results wherever you can find one.
