Sanyo 5300 housing swap instructions

Very happy with my Sanyo 5300 but housing has cracked near hinge. I just bought a cosmetically mint ( inoperative, doesn't power up, per seller) used one on ebay so I can swap housings. I would greatly appreciate learning from the experience of others who have disassembled and reassembled this handset. The crack is in the part of the housing that holds the keypad. (It is actually cracked right at the switch hole that detects when the phone is folded closed.)

I have no idea whether the LCD displays work on the used unit I bought. Therefore, I guess I need to disassemble the case and hinge and just replace the top plastic frame that has all the holes in it for the keypad keys.

I know about the 4 tri-wing screws on the back but that is as much as I know. After I remove those, what do I do?
