MacBook replacement parts?

[definitive]

Is there a place that sells new keyboard plates (keyboard + touchpad) for 2009 MacBooks for a cheap price? I'm talking about the one that came right before the unibody version. I've seen them going for close to $100 on EBay, but don't want to spend that much.

White Macbooks Apple is still replacing a lot of them out of warranty if it's an issue where it's cracking. Have you tried carrying it into an Apple store? I know about 5 folks that have tried, 4 were successful on out of warranty machines. 5th was an abuse issue IMHO. Other than that without looking to see if they indeed have them i'd check iFixit first. It is pretty much an Apple proprietary part.

Apple still replaces it, but the turnaround time isn't impressive.
