I recently had to reflow the chipset on my A1226 and then applied new thermal paste.
However, I forgot to remove the plastic tabs at the top of the logic board and they melted from the temperature of the heat gun. Now I cannot screw in the two center top screws on the back cover. First what are those pieces called and how can I get replacements?
They are tiny but apparently have a key function in reassembling the case.
I would appreciate any advice.
Thank you.
