Apple sells parts and rents tool kits.

They sell a select few parts, from which you're FORCED to rent these stupid and unnecessary tool kits and then spend all day on the phone with Apple getting them to completely unnecessarily approve the repair with their servers.

E: this option isn't even listed on their website. Only options listed are to send it in or get it done at a "3rd party authorized repair" store.
