I've found that the best way to buy 570 parts is to just buy a non-working 570 on ebay. In your case, you don't need the motherboard or LCD, so you should be able to get one that is cheap because "it doesn't power up" or "LCD is cracked".

I needed a 570 keyboard, but I ended up getting a "for parts" 570 instead, and it had a better battery than any of the ones I was using! The "parts" 570 certainly cost less than a keyboard plus a battery separately.

I would HOPE it's cheaper to buy a single key and a hdd cover than an entire system!!!
