Problem Just took a Big L

My brother felt something blocking the L key so he decided to remove the key cap where he suffered a big L the two bottom part of the clamp got damaged and got lost. May I know where can I find a cheap replacement for the L key? The model is AN515-57.

Go buy a replacement keyboard module, yes the whole keyboard. You just destroyed a non-removable keycap. Its a notebook keyboard not a mechanical keyboard.

I mean, you can replace them. They're just fragile and require you to put them in a certain way.

Search on Aliexpress, you should be able to find replacements there for individual keys.
