Hey glorious people of the forums! I found myself dissasembling my personal PS4 since I noticed it was getting a bit dusty after 6-7 years of continuous use (lol). Everything was going smoothly until I realized the bottom half wouldn't budge open, so looking back at some guide pictures, I noticed that there are several rivets??? I think or just plasticy bits where screws should be. I know that this is probably a dead end already but what should I do? I really want to clean the old guy he did so much for me. I'll try to attach some pics in the bottom. Anyways any help is appreciated!! Thnx guyyssss :p

I take it's still working.

Electronic grade Canned air duster is my suggestion so you don't break it. Not an air compressor.
