    Unhappy [Answered] PS3 Blu Ray circuit board clip replacement?

    I'm not sure if this is the right section for this type of question, but basically before removing a laser module from my old packed in ps3 blu ray drive, I snapped one of the clips on the circuit board (the clips you pull up and press down to hold the circuits in place).

    Now I was wondering are there any home remedies to hold these circuits down in place, or does anyone know if you can buy spare clips from somewhere?

    It would be nice if I didn't have to buy a new circuit board just because of this snapped clip, and I don't think super glue would do the trick since the clips are so small and require a bit of pressure.

    Here are some pics for a better perspective.

    wow nice work haha, you can't buy them clips.. I can't understand how you've managed to snap them but at least you've kept them as long as you line the clip up properly even though it's snapped it will click back into place and secure the data ribbon just take your time.
