Help Replacing Digitizer for X30

Hello Everyone,

I never took a Pocket PC apart, so running into some problems here...
I was following instructions on Dell Axim X3 Take Apart Directions: PDAparts is the Palm Treo, HP iPAQ, Blackberry, iPhone, PDA Parts and Repair Specialist,
but got stuck on Step 7. Two of the connectors have little plastic tabs with arrows that may be lifted up. Should they remain in place or not? I don't understand what they mean in the instructions when they say "secure both sides". Which way should the connectors be lifted/released? Any suggestions on exact techniques and tools?

Any other pointers for disassembly and assembly would be greatly appreciated.
In particular I am wondering what needs to be done to the bluetooth/wireless activity indicators when the main board is being removed.

Thanks,
Max

I took apart my x30 and put it back together without any obvious bad effects.
