MacBook Pro Battery Replacement

I have 2 issues:
1) Should I buy an expensive one from iFixit which is likely to be of good quality or a cheaper one from eBay?
2) Adhesive remover? From watching YouTube videos the brute force removal, without using adhesive remover dribbled under the battery though a syringe, is fraught with danger. For another £7 iFixit will supply a kit including this but I believe it is nothing more than Acetone which I already possess.
Has anyone replaced their laptop battery or would like to comment?
