hi samcrowe, like I always say.. Google is your friend. Try searching for 'service manual' + 'your laptop model number and brand'. You will of course have to read the manual and follow instructions from there. Some sites that will show up also sells these manuals so you can buy one too. Or you can buy from eBay. I believe they have some service manuals for sale there too.

If this is your first time to open it up... I suggest you spare a few $ and let someone do it for you if you are not willing to end up with cracked plastics or worse an expensive paper weight. But on the other hand if you are not willing to spare a few bucks for a keyboard replacement and want to do it on your own... caution is advised.
