I have an early 2016 MBP 15inch with a swollen battery. All I find for kits is for late 2016. Are these the same? If not, any thoughts on how I can replace my battery?

Great. Thanks! Do you know if the torx driver problem that someone commented on with the kit was solved? I'd hate to get 60 steps into the process to discover the tool doesn't work.

Apple didn't make an Early 2016 model, all they did is offer an updated Mid 2015 model until the touch bar models came out.
Double check by accessing your systems S/N under: About This Mac and looking it up here EveryMac - Lookup

Thanks. I wonder why everyone calls it late 2016 then, and not just 2016? By the way, your link doesn't work.

It works, It gets you to a web page to plug in your systems S/N to find your system. I just checked.

@sdeban - I suspect, session time outs due to overloaded Internet.
