Hi

The shop has feet and screw sets, but not appropriate for my MacBook. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hey Victor, last night when I answered this question it had listed that your machine was a different MacBook, not the MacBook Pro unibody that is listed now. Sorry about that. Refer to @mayer's answer.

I have used these exact feet as replacements for clients before and they are solid. You might find that you have to use some extra liquid adhesive and a clamp while drying. If you decide to do this, make sure to remove the bottom case cover from the Mac to ensure liquid adhesive does not drip into the internals.

Hey Victor,

If you’re really picky on getting feet specific for your MacBook, you’ll probably have to do some digging on eBay or Amazon. But if you’re just looking for a quick and efficient fix, I’d buy some general rubber chair feet off Amazon or from your local hardware/home improvement store.

Here’s a few examples that i’m thinking of:

https://www.amazon.com/20-Round-Rubber-F...

https://www.amazon.com/Tenozek-Furniture...

In order for these to work, you might have to remove the remaining feet that are still intact in order for the MacBook to be level. If you want them to match the color of the case, you might even be able to find them in white. Amazon has pretty much everything…

Hope this helps
