    Hey all,

    I've had my X230t, for almost a year now, the keyboard starting having weird issues (i've never spilled anything on it or dropped it or anything) so I contacted Lenovo and got a replacement to swap out myself.

    Since then, I've started to notice the stylus slides out a lot more than usual, and it hangs out the side more than it did as far as I can remember. It's basically on the road to getting lost.

    My guess is, I may have bumped and lost something in the mechanism that latches it. I can't find any tear down videos that show a good enough quality to really tell anything...

    So, I just wanted to ask if anyone who has one would be willing to remove their keyboard and take a picture of the stylus slot so I can discern what it is I'm missing and maybe engineer something to replace it. I would be eternally grateful.

    Cheers!
