Broken key on sx-p50. How to open?

One of the basskeys of my p50 has broken down. I need to open it up to see if it can be fixed. How do I open it? What screws need to be opened to get inside? Thanks in advance /Lars

Here´s some recent info: In case anyone else have these questions: I had to open the backcover completely and remove the connection right panel (2 ext screws, 1 intern)
to get inside. Now the spare part has been ordered and hopefully the repair will be successful!

Let us know how your repair goes.

Well, the key that I finally found at ebay didn´t quite fit my model, but with some plastic tape and putting the spring back in position the key functions as good as ever. Also much help by this very instructive video:

Hello - I have a question on my SX-P30, and can't find how to begin a post to ask the question. May I ask how you did that? Don't see any fields to click, other
than to reply to someone else's post. Thanks!
