Step Lines

+[* black] Remove the metal handle from the suction cup. It's easier and safer to grip the suction cup's base instead of the metal handle.
+[* icon_caution] Be very careful when opening the iPhone so that the cables under the display are not severed.
[* icon_note] There is a rubber gasket between the silver front bezel and black display assembly. A bit of force is required in this step to separate the iPhone's display assembly.
[* black] Use a small suction cup near the Home button to gently pull up the bottom portion of the iPhone's display assembly.
-[* icon_note] If you don't have a suction cup, you may be able to use some wide scotch tape or something similar without too much glue.
+[* icon_note] If the display assembly is to damaged to allow the suction cup to adhere, tape with a strong adhesive such as duct tape maybe used.
