Need a replacement plastic key part for my laptop keyboard. Where do I get it?

Where can I get the inner white plastic part to fix a key on my Pavilion DV7 keyboard?

Please use plain text.

You can start here.

 If you plug in your specific model number on ebay you may get a closer match. There are a few different kinds, keep in mind it may be easier to buy a new keyboard, most are only around 15 to 20 bucks.

 

 This guy seems to offer the best selection.

Thanks. I found a couple of websites using a Google search that had them for $5 each + S&H.  I ordered a replacement for under $10 with shipping.

You can find those parts easily on this website:

They have guides to help you install the keys and they will also help you find the right type of mechanism for your keyboard. Good luck!
