Some hp pavilions you need to detach the keyboard first, then, and only then, can you access the screws that hold the palmrest!
This isn't the case on the P series. The keyboard is welded in with plastic so the top piece and keyboard is a singular component.

Thanks, Nick. Great guide, took me about 20 mins to get this done.
That’s good to know. I said 2 hours to cover for users who will take a little longer to complete the repair. The difficulty also reflects on that.
