Update re my earlier question. NO dismantling needs to be done to replace only the screen, just carefully remove the screen bezel. I used a smaller craft knife, for flexibility, and did no damage to the rubber or (broken) LCD. The hardest part is re-attaching the screen cable, patience is required... From start to finish about one hour. Hope this helps someone out there.

How can I replaced touch pad mechanism on MacBook Air. It doesn't respond sometimes.

Like JaXon I only need to replace the screen and would appreciate knowing the minimum teardown to achieve this. Thanks in advance.

Thank you for these instructions. They gave me the confidence to disassemble my MacBook Air and install a new top case and keyboard. In the comment below I asked about the interconnect board. It turns out that this long narrow board that acts as a junction between the logic board on one side and the keyboard and trackpad on the other was supplied with the top case/keyboard assembly, which I purchased from Powerbook Medic via this site. Thanks again - I've proven that it takes more than a glass of lemonade to kill a MacBook Air after all. :-) Rick.

The interconnect board I'm referring to is a long narrow board that a number of ribbon cables connect to, included cables from the keyboard and trackpad. Larger ribbon cables then connect from this board to the logic board. I've seen it called the interconnect board at step 19 of iFixit MacBook Air teardown pages. (sorry, link not permitted!) Is this interconnect board just a part of the logic board? Thanks! :-) Rick.

@Rick - what interconnect board are you referring to? The logic board?
