[Yaesu] how to disassemble FT5100 display

[Ted Boerkamp]

Hello everyone..I am in the middle of trying to replace the backlight bulbs
in my FT5100 but

I have hit a snag. I have the front part of the housing disconnected from
the main body ie. ribbons

are disconnected but now I cant seem to get the pcb out of the plastic front
housing.

I have removed the 1 screw and twisted 5 metal tabs straight and I still
cant find what is holding the

board inside. I also removed all the knobs from the faceplate.

Any suggestions are most welcome.

Thanks
