I took off the keyboard to clean it, and now I'm having a hard time getting the palmrest back on. It's going into place, but not snapping into the tabs in the front. I googled and did a search here, but it didn't seem to be a common issue. I suppose I could have broken one of the tabs, but I don't see how I could have broken all of them.
Is there some trick to getting it snapped back into place?

Re: Having trouble reinstalling palmrest
I hook the front edge of the palmrest over the front edge of the T60's frame, engaging the tabs, then lower the back of the palmrest and snap it into place. Sometimes it takes me two or three tries to get it to align and snap in properly.
I don't know what the factory-correct method is, but this works for me.
