Wife bought this battery from iFixIt for her old iPod, and said "here you go, fix it." :-D[br]

Wife bought [link|https://www.ifixit.com/products/ipod-touch-4th-gen-replacement-battery|this battery from iFixIt|new_window=true] for her old iPod, and said "here you go, fix it." :-D[br]
[br]
***Issue #1:*** Polarity markings on the cable are reversed, [post|795775|exactly as described here|new_window=true]. With a mag glass I can see the + and - are opposite on the ribbon if I install the battery with the printed side up. I can see if I install the battery with the printing facing down in the case, the + and - will properly align, but this puts the ribbon cable on the other side of the iPod case, not the original position. Is this acceptable?[br]
[br]
***Issue #2:*** The original battery has a few micro IC's ***''directly on the battery ribbon,''*** the new battery does not. Will this battery work without these IC components?[br]
[br]
In the below you can see I have not de-soldered the old ribbon but can see the polarity of the old battery, as well as the IC's on the old ribbon.[br]
