    I have my G73JH nearly since 2 years (Bought it in April 2010) and it is in general still in a very good shape (Especially with the new free keyboard), only my touchpad button feels quite "used" and is not very comfortable to use anymore.

    Where can I get a new touchpad button and is there any tutorial which explains how I can swap it?

    you cant change the touchpad buttons because it is mounted with the palmrest , so if you want to change it you have to buy a new palmrest.

    Well I see no reason to replace the whole palmrest, guess I will just put something on it so it won't feel so rough anymore. In case that doesn't works, whre could I get a new palmrest?
