Yea and a reminder the umd tray screws are a pain so make sure u have nice pointed philips screw driver.
Also some ppl have a hard time removing the UMD door i suggest from seeing others and videos to use a butter knife and wedge it it on the right side facing the backside of the psp. So wedge it on the right side of the UMD door and the case and should come out nice and easy. Good luck.

the only reason you need to take apart ur psps to take those 3 things out is there are 2 ribbons connected to ur mobo that go to the laser

If you don't care about the drive
you can just clip the ribbons with a pair of scissors

I run my PSP with the umd drive removed.
I have no problems.

I have a connector hooked up in place of it and I am
mounting my umd drive in an external case for
when I need to read a umd

may seem noobish but, wouldn't taking out the tray from the drive make it harder for the laser to read the UMD? or is it just a support

it is to make sure it can still read the disk if you knock it a little, but even if you did it would just say insert the disc and you can easily just push it back on, i am also attempting an external umd drive mod with a bit of change, it will be removable from the outside as it will be in a case that is externally mounted, but i am also planning on putting something where it is supposed to be, if i manage to pull it off with the other mod that i am doing it will be a first and my psp will be pretty cool.
