I recently had a chunk of chip (pretty big) get stuck under my spacebar, and to get it out I had to take the spacebar off. Now that I took it off, I have figured out how to put it back on, but it requires me to wedge a hinge on the scissor mechanism back into place on the bottom of the spacebar, and the gap between the body of the laptop and bottom of the spacebar is too tight to try to get the scissor mechanism into the hinge on the bottom of the spacebar. There are no visually obvious ways of getting the keyboard off, unless I bend the metal body and wedge it off the plastic plate the "motherboard" rests on.

I realize that this isn't the exact same model as yours, but this video should give you a basic idea of just how much crap needs to be removed to be able to remove the keyboard (the insides of yours look even tougher):

This tutorial unfortunately doesn't show how to remove the motherboard. Only up to that point.
