How to disassemble a Raymarine e7D chart plotter

[BrianSmith]

I have four of these chart plotters. Months ago, the one I use the least went bad (screen turned all green all the time). About a month ago, the knob for zooming in and out of the chart, the radar view, etc. started acting up on the one we use the most. So yesterday, I took them both completely apart and swapped the knobs, and now I have a REALLY broken one, but three good ones.

I detailed the disassembly process, with lots of pictures, on our boat's blog site, Smartini.Life. Have a look if you're interested:
