[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1096347, member: 46727"] I doubt you can just buy the part, but even if you could, you do realize that components on the logic board are surface mounted? In order to remove a surface mounted component without destroying the integrity of the logic board you would need a specialized solder removal tool and a good knowledge of how to use it. If the headphone tip can not be removed, the Apple recommended repair is to swap out the entire logic board. If you wish, try the Mac parts folks at [url=http://www.ifixit.com]iFixit: The free repair manual[/url]. Regards. [/QUOTE]
