Top Case Replacement for A1502 using A1493 Case?
Does anyone know if the MacBook Pro 13 Late 2013 (A1493) Top Case is compatible for the MacBook Pro 13 Mid 2014 (A1502) hardware.
I have come across sites that say they are compatible. However, I see the trackpad trimming for the A1493 is different from the A1502. Also, they are using different cables to attach the trackpad to the Logic Board. I am unsure if the cable will become damaged from the weird trim from the A1493 Top Case.
Update (10/04/2017)
The A1502 uses a different type of connector for the trackpad from what I am seeing. As opposed to the A1493, it is using a slot for the connection. From what i researched, they were considered the same top case.
13" MacBook Pro Early 2015 (A1502)
13" MacBook Pro Mid 2014 (A1493)
Es esta una buena pregunta?

Can you clarify what you mean by 'trimming' I don't see any difference between these two cases. the Trackpad cable is routed underneath the battery in both. Are you confusing the 15" model which has the cable going over the battery? As seen here" Trackpad cable over battery

Both are A1502 models, 1st one is A1502 2015 (EMC 2835), 2nd is an A1502 2013/2014; A1493 is the battery model number, not the MacBook model number.
These 2 are not cross compatible, they use different trackpads.
