Step 1: Approximately 6 cm (60mm) down the left or right side of the iPod® is the point to begin prying the case. At this point, insert a small flathead screwdriver and begin to pry open the case, working back and forth along the seam.
Step 2: Once the side you are working on pops loose, work your way around the iPod®, by pushing the towards the center of the iPod® you will be able to begin unclipping the clips from the silver case. Once the silver case comes loose, it should still be attached by a ribbon cable.
Step 3: Once inside of the iPod® take notice to the hard drive surrounded by blue rubber. Carefully remove the hard drive by lifting all the blue rubber. You will see a small ribbon cable tab at the base of the rubber that connects the hard drive to the motherboard. Disconnect the hard drive by gently lifting this tab. Set the hard drive aside for re-assembly.

Step 6: Don't forget to wrap the power cord back under the motherboard before applying the battery within the case (use the screwdriver to push it back in). Reconnect the hard drive by placing the hard drive connector over the socket in the motherboard and push it in. Double check the connection by gently pulling on the hard drive. Place the hard drive back into position and snap the silver metal case back together. Your new battery is now ready for charging.
