Usually the keyboard is the first part to come out of a laptop
before you dive deeper to replace other parts. Minor disassembly
and just one delicate ribbon cable.

But it might still require pulling out bits of plastic around the
keyboard, which can be awkward if it's one of those poorly designed
clip-together laptop bodies. Plus there's the "find the screw" game
you'll need to play if you don't have a service manual.

Anyway I'd enjoy it more than messing with the mysteries of
Thunderbird.
