I need to change the keyboard. Is there any way to do it myself? I have not found the exact keyboard in any online store so far. I guess there is a reason why there are no manuals/tutorials for this procedure on this website?
Is this a good question?

Yes, there is a reason. Most people will get Apple to do the replacement for free, using this program

Here’s a video on how to do it:

Thank you for the fast reply! The problem is I can't cause I spilled juice over it way back in 2017 and they will not replace it in this case. The only chance I had from their side was to replace the whole bottom part and this was unnecessary expensive so I decided not to do it.
Ouch! Then you'll need to replace the full uppercase assembly!

That will set you back $200 USD and you'll need a battery as well. and hopefully your touchpad is working otherwise you'll also need it too!
Hey, that sound good! 200$ is definitely worth it, the Computer itself runs as if it is new. And the Touchpad works perfectly too. So thanks for the links I'll try it.
Can I reuse the Battery that is already in the Mac Book?
@tulpenhauer - Given the age and risk of damage I would put in a fresh one MacBook Pro 15" Retina (Late 2016-2017) Battery and the guide MacBook Pro 15" Touch Bar Late 2016 Battery Replacement
