Get your gloves, some alcohol, and a ton of patience. So here is a process that sucks no matter how you approach it! Removing the battery from your Retina Macbook Pro. These are delicate machines so be extra careful while doing this - which after watching the video sounds funny. You have to saw back and forth behind the battery cells, individually, with heavy string or twine dipped in 99% iso. Apologies for this one being a bit more instructional vs entertaining. We try to do it all over here. That said, this is something you can do at home with very little cost beyond the new battery! A new battery is about $120 Canadian, and you can install it using materials easily found around home or at the drugstore. Thanks again to the dogs and cats of the world.
