Battery life had degraded over time to about 1/3 of expected battery life.

Quick and easy repair. I like to make a layout grid for placing the screws to ensure they do not get mixed up, the actual repair probably took about 5 minutes. The battery is excellent, same battery life as the original OEM battery.

The hardest part is the battery tape. Removing it is pretty easy, just use even force. When re-applying it though, be very careful as it's easy to have it get folded and ruined. I recommend buying one extra tape, just in case.
