You have to find the spherical cover stickers on the screen bezel. And in this case, the stickers surround the screen, which hides the screws.

Place New Screen

You need to replace the old LCD screen with a new one and reattach the video cable to the connector. Now you have to place the cable lines and any tape just like they were for the old one.
