What type of scissor clip is this?
I cant seem to find a replacement for this type of scissor clip, has anyone seen this type Arrow Key clip before? It is not Type A or B. The Keyboard is off a 2010 or 2009 MBP.
Is this a good question?

Find out what it is and I'll see if I have one for you for free. The last four figures of your serial number might help.

Thanks mayer, that is a very generous offer, unfortunately I'm not sure what the keyboard is out of (other than a box of donor keyboards) And having compared the clip to another 20 or so keyboards and searching online - This one is different from any other I can see! I'm resigning myself to pulling it off again and swopping it for a "normal" one.
Without more information on your system it will be hard to narrow down what the keyboard version is. I should point out if you lost the full scissor you'll need to find a junker to steal it from. Otherwise its time for a complete new keyboard - Ouch!
I would recommend you contact these folks they maybe able to get you the needed parts: TheBookYard.

Can you give us the last four digits of your serial number so we can correctly identify which model you have.

Thanks Dan yes will give them a go. To be honest I'm not sure what the actual keyboard came from as I had it lying around and swopped it out for a liquid damaged one. I may have to swop it out again - hmm all those little screws... I'm wondering if it was a non Apple keyboard as I cant find any details on this type of clip - but I didn't think anyone would bother to make them...

The metal tab where the scissor clip locks into, is it a hook or a closed loop.?

Thanks for your reply, its 3 hooks - no closed loops.
