    • Remove the two rubber stoppers from where the battery previously was.

    This can be done without removing the back cover. Slightly more difficult but only by about 1mm or less.

If after replacement your keyboard has some keys clacking, make sure you slid the keyboard all the way back. Even a small amount can make some keys feel weird.
