Fixed my touchpad

I replaced the keyboard an touch pad on my Dell Inspiron. It failed a few weeks ago. The touch pad would not move the mouse pointer anymore and the mouse button would click randomly.
I recently changed the power brick, and then this happened so I invested the $19.95 in a new front panel for the PC. I had to take out 1,000 screws, but I got it working again, with only a few screws left over.
Here’s a closeup of the old touch pad. I wore  a hole in it, and the finish is gone from the buttons. I use this thing to death.
