2008 battery in 2010 MBP

[Caitlinpm]

my charging port and battery are dead (water damage) in my mid 2010 13" mac book pro unibody design. however i have a fully functional late 2008 13" macbook pro. Is it possible to put the battery and the charging port from the 2008 into the 2010?

Using this guide, I think the swap may be possible (I will readily admit to not reading the whole article though) http/gizmodo.com/quick-and-easy-macbook-repairs-thatll-save-you-a-small-991788866
