    Do you want to replace the trackpad yourself or bring the laptop to somebody to do it for you?

    Mind if I ask what issues you're having ?

    My 15" 2012 MBP has been giving me trackpad problems recently. Specifically I sometimes can't left-click. Not a big issue in itself but more annoying is that I can't drag windows or resize them. Is this happening to you ?

    Edit: You can get spares and instructions from iFixit

    I think I have one somewhere that I never use ( had a 2012 , 13" model)...If I can find I will double check the model and you can have it
