So my power put-on stopped working and I ordered a new proximity power ribbon and installed it following ifixit and a video off youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anulrrS30bo&feature=my_favorites&list=FLHR_pskSGTuZEnmUrYLCnAQ

The part I got was off of directfix.com

The power button works, but now the proximity sensor doesn't. I think I know why though. On the original part, there was a little rubber gasket glued around the proximity sensor and on the part installed it wasn't there. On the original part there was a also a foam ring to press against the ear piece, and another one on the opposite end of the cable to the power button.

Does anyone know where I can get these foam parts as mine are all torn from removing the original part.

Or does anyone know where I can get a replacement proximity sensor/power button ribbon that has the rubber gasket over the proximity sensor?

Thanks!
