Take out the keyboard buttons. Usually they are of two types - separate (each button is located in a separate cell) and in the form of an integral canvas (all buttons are a single surface). In the first case, you will have to pull out each button, and in the second, simply pull out the canvas. If the buttons are separate, then do not forget to take a photo of the keyboard before disassembling so as not to confuse them during assembly.
