Hi,

According to a service manual, the touchpad is a part of the top cover. You have to replace whole top cover..

Top cover part number: 496881-001

Service manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01705400.pdf

See page 71 how to replace it..

Have look on ebay or use google to find the cheapest one..
