I've been spoiled with ability to withstand my clumsy interventions seeking to fix minor issues with earlier X-es (x61 and x220). I was less lucky with the X1C7 though - while trying to investigate the tactile difference between left and right ultranav buttons, i've botched the tiny plastic clips on one button for good.
Do you think it would make any sense to look for a spare button alone?

Re: X1C7 replacing ultranav button
That key is part of the keyboard, and single keys are not (yet) available on eBay.
Try aliexpress.
Full keyboard, e.g. this: https://www.ebay.ie/itm/153741891386

Just got a replacement keyboard from aliexpress and the transplant job went through pretty smooth.
In case anybody here would need a spare keycap, i might help one out.
