One comment
The overall procedure is ok, however as others commented instructions on how to remove the feet would be helpful. I tried a heat gun to help loosen the glue, however that just melted the feat. Overall go the job done, but 2 out of the 4 feet were destroyed in the process.
Also in my case there were no screws under the top or bottom feet, so I could have probably removed the cover without removing the feet.
