How to Remove Back of Nzxt Elite Tower

How do I remove the front panel on the H510 Elite? I've seen a lot of answers but they all just say where the screws are. I got the screws out, I just need to know where to apply pressure and how it removes bc the shattered glass is making it extremely difficult. (It shipped like this)

There are two little plastic nubs on the top of the front panel which click into the case. Once you remove the two side screws, just pull the top two corners of the front panel gently and evenly towards you, and the top half should pop out. Then just lift the bottom over the little lip and remove. Just be extra careful to not get any glass anywhere!

This is what I needed... thank you so much. Just like the side panel, should've figured! I vacuumed out the whole case and now I'm just ready for that replacement

level 1

I would just ask NZXT to send you a new one and let them deal with FEDEX for the shitty shipping service....or whoever was the shipping company.

level 2

I did reach out to them and it sounds like (messages were a little unclear) they are shipping me just a replacement front panel. It'll be here in a couple days but in the mean time I need to figure out how to get this damn thing off if I'm going to replace it

level 1

100% put tape on that glass before you try to remove it. Go for duct tape or something really sticky.

level 2

Really wish I would've seen this earlier bc I had to vacuum it out to get all the shards that fell

level 2

this, should be higher up

level 1

Just leave the front panel off for max air flow lul

level 1

try youtube, since this case is so popular there might be a video explaining the replacement

level 1

There are 2 screws on Glass side of the case with the glass panel. Should be easy to see once removed. There may also bed a pair on the other side panel.

level 1

Loosen it (idk how), put duct tape all over the shards. Find some winter/heavy duty gloves and then proceed to remove the glass panel by holding to the edges. If you can't find thick gloves then use a towel, or anything that can protect your hand. Also, if you can, try to put in an orientation where if the glass shards fall, they dont go into the case.

level 1

Put duck tape over the glass so it doesn't go flying around when you try to remove it.

Edit: I'm little late to the party.

level 1

Sorry for the misfortune.. I hope everything turns s out for you.

level 2

The shipping box was punctured/damaged and when I opened it, that's what it looked like

level 1

Tbh I think it looks cool, you should just pour epoxy on it so it stays together and won't cut you.

level 1

I had the same issue, they fedex you a new one, you should be good. FedEx sucks though, it's like the punted the box or something
