key removal in MacBook Air 2017

Hi, I have MacBook Air 2017 model A1466 and I have a problem with a key. I want to remove it but Im not sure how. There are so many tutorials and I don't know which one is right for my MacBook. Could you send me a youtube link or give me any advice?

I know the 13" MBAir 2013-2017 all use the two types of Keyboards where the keycaps are removed in the same manner. The process to remove a keycap depends on the specific keys since the Function keys, arrow keys are removed differently from the others. Plus the longer keys such as Tab, Caps lock, space, Shift, etc. have one or two stabilizer bars to contend with. Be very careful since it is easy to damage the keycap and/or the nubs on the scissor mechanism.
