You might need some tools for prying apart plastic parts without damaging
them with metal tools.

Something like sharp edges guitar pick, old swipe/access/bank card, etc. I
have seen cheap toolkits with suitable plastic tools in
Amazon/iFix-it/Walmart for a few $$, I think.

Sometimes, things hold together with double-sided sticky tape. It might
come handy too.

... If you expect to find some nasty lifeform under the screen ... bring
something to deal with that. I recommend watching "Alliens" or other Sci-Fi
to get an idea of what you might be against!
