Try eBay. I need some similar parts for my Thinkpad (keyboard and DC-DC
converter board), and was surprised to find lots of them for sale on
eBay. Of course, in the end I decided that I don't really need the
portability enough to justify spending several hundred to fix it, so I
never actually bought any laptop parts over eBay.
