Broken space bar carriage/retainer clip

[Ari77ca]

I was recently trying to clean out my keyboard and when I opened the space bar I realized I was not able to put it back properly like it was before. The key kind of wobbles back and forth when I press it  because for some reason the key carriages are just flat on the board and are not supporting the key easily. Its kind of hard to explain with words but I believe the culprit might be a broken key carriage clip so does anyone know where I can get some replacement ones for my laptop?

Thanks

It may not be broken.  Here is a video i found that might help.

if it is damaged you can search for a replacement key or keyboard using

HP 17-c0000

HP 17-c

HP 17-cn

The 17-c0000 spec lists all the 17-cn so I assume they are all compatible except for color

An entire keyboard but is blue

the CN

the "C"

The local vendor can answer questions.;   AliExpress is cheaper but usually does not include the tiny screwdriver or have any videos.
