Magical double-sided tape with glue on both sides ?

Yep, crazy but not a new idea...

First, press the oled display from outside, slowly bend it (take care not breaking flex) to allow the double-sided tape to give up. There is small black sticker on the display, it might release before the sticky-tape (no worries)

Then use same carefull slowly tiring method to the PCB. There is 2 pieces of tape, one on both ends, and one bigger black double-sided tape between the IR led and sensor.

There is pad for charge input pogo, but unfortunately it is not connected to anywhere, just a pad - making connection there i leave to you
Ground is next to it, but it can be found around the pcb.
