The reason you can’t find one is Apple is servicing the Butterfly keyboard issues for free! They are replacing the full uppercase assembly transferring your display, logic board and bottom cover over.
Keyboard Service Program for MacBook, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro
You can do the same using one of these:
- 13” MacBook Pro Top Case Assemblies - Space Grey (16/17)
- 13” MacBook Pro Top Case Assemblies - Silver (16/17)
Even if you wanted to replace the keyboard alone is not an easy job as there are riveted in! So far I have not found a source for them either.

@yuwonowibowo - Fire off an email to big Tim tcook@apple.com. Tell them the service providers name and the reason they refused to fix your system under the extended warranty program. As long and you didn't damage the physically keyboard they should fix it! Don't let this slide!
Otherwise you'll need to replace the full uppercase as I laid out below.
