As the title says I need to remove my battery so I can replace it. A few days ago I noticed that my mousepad seemed to be curved, and upon further inspection I realized that the case was actually bending because the battery was misshapen. I bought this laptop in 2015 and the battery has failed me only recently. Upon removing the back panel I detached the battery from its connector and tried to lift it out but I think it's glued on, but I'm not sure. It doesn't look like there's any screws holding it in place but it's firmly secured to the casing. Does anyone know if I pried it out if removal would damage the laptop? Thanks!

I saw that's website but it's the wrong model of laptop. iFixit goes over the P34G and I own a P34W
