I’ve read that the 2009 Macbook Pro 15" have different top cases for glossy and anti-glare versions. Do the 2010 versions share the same difference? I am looking to replace the top case for my anti-glare MBP since I spilled some liquid on the keyboard making some keys unresponsive. Thanks in advance.

You can actually change just the keyboard. They are the same in all 2008-2010 models. It’s a bit tricky (49 tiny skrews) but possible. You’ll get the keyboards from eBay vendors.
