Replacement key for a mid 2010 macbook pro?

The letter works but the plastic fastener seems broken. I need a letter "g". Apple are suggesting replacement of the entire keyboard. This seems ridiculous.

MacBook Pro, iOS 6.1.4

Apple insists on replacing the whole topcase (to the tune of $700 or more) for a piddly broken keycap. Ignore them. Purchase the missing keycap and repair yourself. I get mine from https://www.replacementlaptopkeys.com/ Be sure to get the right kind by inspecting the remains of the dead key.


I've replaced a Caps Lock that broke off, as well as several others whose letters rubbed off due to extreme use:
