Is it possible to replace the battery connector on the logic board
MBA 2013 13 inch
The connector in question is the one marked 358MA. I've tried searching for a replacement connector but as you can tell I have been unsuccessful.
I'm currently using my Mac with just the power cable.
Update (02/11/2016)
The connector of the battery was cut off and the wires stripped back to align with the solder pads on the logic board. The battery cable was then soldered to the pads of the logic board. Keep in mind the surface mounted connector of the logic board came loose which left the pads exposed.
Это хороший вопрос?

How do you attach it. Can it just be glued in?

You solder it in. @Lisa Mac

In my attempts to do this same repair, I lifted the centre pad off the board. The clean up was a bit messy and I don’t know if it was my doing or by design, but pads 1-2-3 have continuity between all three and same for 7-8-9. 4 & 6 are isolated and still work and #5 pad is gone. Anyone have a schematic of what I should see in testing the pads? Is it okay to bridge 4&6?

As Aiden has said the fix requires soldering. From the research I have done (2019) the task requires someone with developed soldering skills.
