Pull the keycap off the switch. 
Push keycap to one side (left or right). 
Lift.

Thanks! Theres no point in putting orings on the +'s with the stablizers on them right? Just the middle one right?

That is right, just setting the O-rings in the middle one (the one that mounts to the swtich) will do since its costars and the sides don't come into contact with anything at all.

Ignore the intro music, otherwise it's a good video.
