Acer Laptop Service Manuals

I'm looking for instructions on opening up an Acer Travelmate 803Lci. The center plug for the power connector broke out, and looks like it will be reasonably easy to fix, but I can't figure out how to get the case open.

Anyone know where I can find a service manual, or how to open this case?

you will have screws on the bottom and/or under the keyboard

The only hard part is remembering where all the screws came from so take notes or pictures or something

In most cases with a cracked off power plug you will need to solder it back on and reinforce it with epoxy or glue
 
Any tips for removing the keyboard then?

I've removed all the screws, and a plastic cover for the IR port on the front of the case, but it seems like there's one connector left at the center of the case, toward the LCD hinge, that I can't figure out how to access.
