Changing Macbook Keys

Changing one by one is a pain in the ass, but shouldn't void the warranty. Changing the whole keyboard would be easier, but requires diassembly of the machine -> bye bye warranty.

I'm guessing that buying them probably won't be that easy. Try asking at apple repair centres, check out eBay. I doubt you will be able to buy a single key, if anything, they'll sell you a whole keyboard.

 

I had to buy one single key and I found them here:

I must agree that changing them is a bit tricky. Just take a look at the instruction provided in the link above. It's important to be very patient when doing it, but now I have my keyboard working again.

 

ya i also need only 2 keys, but 1 huge problem...they only have the plastic scizzor 1's, i need metal =/ what do i do?

 

Does anyone know if it's possible to change the keys on a slim aluminum mac keyboard with those on a Macbook? I just tried changing the shift pieces and even though they're the same size I couldn't seem to get them into place right.
