Ebay Listing

Hey guys,

I don't want to spam or anything but I just bought my MacBook Pro Rubber Feet set from ebay for like $7 and it was free shipping. It came with both the Inner Plug and Outer Plug. I think this store offers a package for the glue and alcohol pad in a kit set for something like $12 or so. Well I just wanted to share this link, and my experience.

When one of my MBP's foot broke off, I taped it in place with cello-tape. That served a triple purpose: the screws were loose and I was too lazy to get thread locker; I often work in bed and slide my MacBook back on to the desk, but the rubber feet provided too much fiction; the foot needed to be back in place.

Regards
Raptor
 
And I can't get it back on. I can't seem to find any solution to this problem.

I just stuck one of mine back on with some UHU glue, it has done the job for the last 6 months.
 
found a guide of apple, it shows how to replace the rubber feet
MacBook Pro: Bottom case foot replacement DIY instructions

but found no Inner plug cover on Amazon, inner feet only
https://www.amazon.com/Bottom-Rubber-feet-MacBook-A1278/dp/B01EYRLM5Q/keywords=macbook+feet

The kit is perfect. Unlike other kits it comes with spare screws, the normal screwdriver, and then the whole set of feet (inner and outer).

But outer rubber is not close to the real thing you get. Not even rubberized, maybe lightly. they're too hard.
