Gently place the Input Cover keyboard side down on the Bottom Cover as indicated on the image. The cover should be about an inch and a half away from the bottom of the Mainboard so that you can comfortably install the Touchpad Cable.

You guys need to hire an actual technical writer for these How-To guides before you get more customers like me - people who know nothing about computers but don't want to have to buy a whole new computer every time some part stops working or becomes obsolete. If only to review comments and make edits on the ones confusing multiple people.
"While flipped over, the top edge of the cover should overlap the bottom edge of the Mainboard by about an inch and a half so..." I think this would be a better way to phrase it.

It means that instead of "lining it up" to the bottom of the frame it needs to be overlapping (at least) 1,5 inch above the mainboard. Otherwise you will not be able to assemble the touchpad cable.

"The cover should be about an inch and a half away from the bottom of the Mainboard"... what does this mean?
