Their site has really good pictures so I didn't take any. Two screws and the display can be pulled off with a strong suction cup. Three or four screws for a small metal plate, a few connectors to unplug and the display is free, then three screws for battery connector covers, unplug, plug in a new one, put it together and the phone was good as new. The hardest part was prying the old battery out because they use a lot of adhesive. The new battery needed charging. And I needed some clear double sticky tape because the swollen battery split my display glass from backing. Now it is good as new.
I do need to give a disclaimer - my daughter saw the swollen battery and asked "can I cut it up"? That is the precise reason Apple really doesn't want people changing batteries themselves - stupidity like that! LiIon batteries can be DANGEROUS. My answer was an emphatic NO - after which I found a qualified battery recycling service.
