Hi all,

I lucked out on a ROM 03 GS motherboard, and I was easily able to
replace the BRAM battery. Unfortunately, the fastener that holds the
battery into the compartment is very delicate, and I broke one of the
clips. How hard is it to replace the fastener? I probably shouldn't
be too self-conscious about such minor damage, but I feel attached to
my computer and I want to take care of it.
Thanks,

If you want to replace the clip, the most straightforward approach
is to buy another battery socket, and swap clips.

Another approach might be to ask if anyone here has one they
don't need.
