broken key on MB keyboard

Macnoviz · Feb 29, 2008, 04:56 PM

I just noticed the "A" key on my MB keyboard has been broken (crack in the paint or something). Does any one have experience with problems like this? Would they be able to repair a single key at an Apple Premium Reseller? (no Apple Stores in Belgium)
They can replace the (discolorable) top of the MB, so perhaps they can do the keyboard as well.

If your key is not broken then you can use this video tutorial to fix it back in place, but if the key itself is broken then you can also buy a replacement key. Its really not a big deal. You can buy new replacement laptop keys at http://www.laptopkey.com , for $4.99. Check it out. Helped me fix my "M" key last month
