I dont't think this is an easy iFixit instruction. It's rather mid or hard especially since you have to break plastic parts to even access the screws. It might make sense to change the difficulty on this one :D @mariaparker
@fixnils you are completely right, that was a mistake on my part! Thanks for noticing :)
@mariaparker could we maybe add the specifications of the Lithium battery to the repair manual?
I could provide an image from my logitech spotlight to help with that.
Users are coming back again and again to ask the same question about the battery specification and the battery size.

At step 1, I was able to twist and push a strong but thin screwdriver (Philips 000) through the plastic parts which would otherwise block access to the screws. By angling the screwdriver slightly the screws can be released without breaking the plastic completely, so you still have the retention of the usb dongle - although obviously this isn't essential.
If you have to heat-shrink connection of the original plug and new battery wires they may be too bulky for the board to go back properly in the carrier. I had to cut away small bits of ribs on the carrier
Thanks for the useful instructions
