I need to replace the battery in my Nexus 4. Can anyone recommend a place that can do it for me at a reasonable price?

Internal batteries are tricky. Requires a total disassembly of the phone.
Unfortunately, your options are limited to: DIY job & phone repair joint.
A phone repair joint, such as Phone King or Mobile Wiz are going to charge through the teeth for it. Hell, a cracked screen is still $150 these days.
If you fancy a go at it yourself, there are plenty of guides on the net, and replacement Nexus 4 batteries are relatively cheap! But then you've got to factor in your confidence levels.
I'd recommend having a crack at it yourself. Open up a YouTube video and set aside an hour of your time. Might be worth backing up beforehand, though.
