I don't see a replacement guide link on that page, but curiously there's this note:

> The aluminum upper case and installation screws are not included.

I would assume you likely need those too, as the article also mentions.

Wouldn’t the screws in your existing generally be reusable for this replacement?

		Yes, they're not highly torqued or anything. I would reuse them even if it did include new screws.

The article is ten paragraphs (two of which are four words or shorter). The entire sixth paragraph is dedicated to answering that question.

		Someone posted a video on how to slam out the rivets with a screwdriver.
