I have a Macbook Pro that lost a foot. I went to an Apple Store in Florida to buy a replacement. I was informed by a store employee that they couldn't sell me a foot. "It requires a special glue" he said. "Only Apple can install it". I then placed an order with Powerbookmedic (link below). They shipped me a package containing 4 replacement feet (self adhesive on back) for $12.00.

I wonder if Apple sell this glue, or what I could use. I'd hate for my glueing job to spill inside the hole, so I don't know if I should try glueing it or not. Any ideas? Thanks.
