I will be tackling this repair soon for my MacBook Air… I see I will need new adhesive to reattach the battery and speakers. What kind of adhesive should I use, and where can I get it?

Jose Gutierrez - Yanıt

I just repaired mine, if you buy the whole upper case part, it already comes with adhesive for the battery. The speakers were still tacky enough to hold mine down. Don't forget to take off those hex nuts off the old upper body because the new part won't have them. I believe it is about 6 of them
