If you don't mind DIY, get it from Amazon:

don't really need to DIY i believe, for this model of Macbook Pro, the battery is removable.

I believe even the RAM and HDD is replaceable easily because of the removable batteries.

I bought a battery for my MBP from MacSales - MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Laptop Battery High Capacity by NewerTech for Late 2008 Models (System Identifier MacbookPro5,1)
$124.26 USD inclusive of shipping to Singapore
