Ipod Batteries

Hey i'm just wondering if anyone has had any experience with replacing the batteries in their ipods. I have a 5G 30gb video ipod and it's slowly dying on with less and less battery life after each charge. Does anyone know where i can get a cheap replacement to install myself locally? Thanks.
