Required Hardware

Two versions of the touch pad replacement kit exist.  The installation of the button membrane is the same for both versions - the primary difference is in the design of the cover label.  

Type 1

This kit has been replaced by Type 2, below.  It is no longer available.

This kit includes a label to cover the screws on the FasCard reader.  The button membrane is pre-labeled.
