    • Heat the skate using a heat gun or hair dryer.

    • Using the pointy end of the spudger pry away a corner of the skate.

    • Repeat these steps for each of the skates.

    • Carefully pry apart the mouse's top and bottom halves. Using the iFixit opening tool, start at one corner and work around the edge.

    • Be cautious of the clips that may break during this process.

    • Using a plastic opening tool, gently pry the connector apart by moving side to side to avoid bending the pins.

    • When reassembling, be mindful that the connector only fits one way, as shown in the pictures.

    • Use the flat end of the spudger to pop-out the scroll wheel assembly.
