I got an email today from the workshop that i needed to change motherboard and topcase. There is no way i will pay 9000nok or 1084 usd for them to change it.
I need help on where i can get the pieces i miss for a much cheaper price, and how i can do this at home please.
Thank you in advance.
Is this a good question?

If you have to replace those parts, you do better by just selling the display on eBay and buying a new machine.

Can you fill us in on what happened. I would hate to have you go through all of this and still not get a working system at the end. If there is any physical damage take some pics if liquid damaged you'll need to open the system up so we can see whats up and likely will need to take the logic board out as well and take some additional snaps.
Here's how to post them: Adding images to an existing question
For reference here's the IFIXIT guide on replacing the uppercase: MacBook Pro 13" Retina Display Early 2015 Upper Case Replacement and here's the part you will need for that aspect: MacBook Pro 13" Retina (Early 2015) Upper Case Assembly. Review this guides parts listing for the logic board: MacBook Pro 13" Retina Display Early 2015 Logic Board Replacement
Again please tell us what happened before ordering parts!!
