Trackpad replacement without keyboard replacement

Can the trackpad be replaced without replacing the keyboard? I have a broken trackpad and can't seem to find a part number for it. My mac is a MacBook Unibody Model A1278.

Thank You

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Yes it can! Your part number is 922-9014. You will, however, need a tri-wing screw driver to replace it. Plugging that part number into Google will lead you to the part.

Good luck!

I have a late 2008 model Macbook 5,1 aluminum case version. Is this a A-1278? I have a defective trackpad on the unit and need a replacement. Is the part number 922-9014 correct? Thanks, Knut Holzer

These old questions rarely get looked at. Asking a new question brings better results and new things may have been learned in the last year and half.
