mac book pro replacement battery

My Dad's 15inch Macbook Pro 2009 needs a new hard/SSD drive and battery. I'm struggling to find a battert online. Can anyone asvise a website and brand? 

Thanks

Hi,

This is probably the best battery you can buy (don't get one of those bargain brands as they're noting but trouble for many people): Replacement Batteries for 15-Inch MacBook Pro 2009-2010

Thanks!

Do you know if they have a UK website?

No, I don't, but you can call their international support and find out: +1-815-338-8685 INTL

I do know they ship internationally.

Apple is also an option: https://support.apple.com/mac-notebooks/repair/service/pricing

Thanks,

I'm in the UK. Apple said they won't repair them as they're now classed as 'vintage' but there are some Apple Repair stores who might be able to help too.

Thanks!

You're welcome. Hope you'll post back with results.

Well, the repair store's prices are a bit expensive so I'm going to buy the right screwdrivers and try to do it myself with online videos! I'll let you know...!

Hi, I've got the battery and successfully replaced the hard drive with an ssd but am struggling to replace the battery as I can't find the right screw drivers! Torx 6 (or 5-10) don't fit. Our nearest computer repair store that does Apple repairs, our nearest Apple Support Centre, Apple Support via phone all can't help! I've googled it and it seems to be a P6 pentalobe screwdriver but I don't want to buy one in case it's not the right model.
