X301 Left Touchpad Button Working Intermittently

Hi All,
My left Touch Pad button is only working if I press it really hard. Has anybody come across this before? I took the palm rest off and blew compressed air through it but it's still the same. Do the buttons disemble easily? I will be keeping an eye out for a new palm rest.
Kind Regards

You can get just the buttons alone: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Original-Le ... 0702912899
Looks like they are mounted with just 2 screws and a flat connector cable.
Should be easy enough.

Thanks for that. I saw them for sale. Iniitally I thought you had to buy the whole Palm Rest which was proving harder to find. Let's hope it arrives soon and is easily replaced.
