There are four plastic clips above the DVD slot, and another above and to the left of the IR sensor. These clips can be very difficult to disengage without prying. They can also be difficult to re-engage during reassembly.

Work along the right edge of the display until the rear bezel is evenly separated from the front bezel.

-
Peel the large piece of black tape off the LCD near the latches at the top edge of the display.

-
Now that the top edge is free, slightly lift the LCD out of the front bezel for enough room to pry the steel strip along the lower edge of the LCD away from the front bezel.
-
Pry along the lower edge of the LCD until it is freed from the adhesive on the front bezel.
-
Avoid pulling the edge of the LCD unit from the screen. Be sure to insert the tool between the metal of the bezel and the metal of the LCD. If the adhesive is very strong, make a couple trips across the bottom edge to avoid applying too much pressure.

I didn't have any trouble getting this apart - I used a small screwdriver from a jewelry repair kit (the set of six super small screwdrivers). I slide it in on the left front where it was open and slid it towards the IR thing. After that clip opened up I just slid it over towards the DVD drive... presto. Will update when I put this back together in a couple days. This guide should warn in the beginning to keep the screws identified in some way or you'll have a %*^! of time putting it back together.
I didn't have a spudger handy, but I got by just fine using an old credit card. Don't use a current one, as I dented up the edges pretty good in the process.
I've disassembled many a pc laptop without instructions, but macs are special ;) it was very helpful to have all the details spelled out for me. Thanks!
Be very carefull and bee patience. It´s very helpfull to have something like the ifixit magnetic project mat to keep the screws in order, otherwise you will have a hard time to put the parts together.
