There's a large piece of double-sided tape holding the old battery in place. It's taped to a plastic substrate which separates the battery from the display. The floss kind of worked but I don't think I used enough of it. Luckily, it was a nice warm day and the double-sided tape gave way without too much of an issue.
Battery was installed without too much drama. The only thing someone has to worry about is that the battery connector needs to be slightly modified. The tabs that typically hold the plug into the receptacle is actually smaller on the OEM battery than the replacement so at least the tabs on one side of the new plug needs to be removed which is pretty easy as the plastic is not too tough.
Once you do that, just apply some doublesided tape to the backside of the battery and close it back up. I also added a bit of foam to the back cover to hold the battery as well as the connector in place.
