Time to get the computer put back together and try out the new stems!

I really recommend using the install tool for this. It makes it easier to align and eliminates the chance of damaging the switch.

Yes I know the case has yellowed like crazy, no I will not be retrobriting it anytime soon. The only thing I've attempted that on did not turn out well and I will not use this computer a guinea pig for that.
