The short answer is no, it’s not the same—Apple doesn’t replace keyboards. Instead they replace the entire top case, including the frame, keyboard, battery, and speakers. All those parts are glued in place, designed not to be serviced. Replacing the keyboard by itself is do-able if you’re skilled and determined, but there are a lot of ways that it can go wrong, and we don’t have a guide for it on iFixit. Hope this helps!
