@silverlox The part is available on the iFixit store.

The guides for replacing them aren’t written for the 15” rather the 13”, but the process should be the same, as far as I remember. Here is a link to the guide on the 2018 13” model.

Thanks for the link to the guide, I'll have to wait until the web site settles down. For me, I get one page and from then on its a wirling circle that never ends

@silverlox Did you click the link, or the Start Guide button? Checked the link and the guide again now, and everything is working fine here on the iPad I’m using now.
