Lunch done, and diving into a battery replacement in my SO's 2019 MacBook.

Gathering tools and setting up a comfy working position with a cuppa tea. The #iFixit outline suggests it's more involved than my older 2012 model. A good resource though!

@ottaross Just recently I replaced the display cable on our 2012 MacBook - even successfully removing the glass screen. I’ve been reluctant to permanently replace the glass because it was so scary to remove! Currently it’s being held in with painter’s tape. Good luck on your battery swap here!
@CAWguy Thanks!
