i received a macbook pro 2012 today. the memory tabs was broken. i couldn't superglue it back together, it just doesn't have the strength to stay.

so i made a bracket...


1. find a Metal Spudger, you might already own one of this for iphone 4s repairs.
2. measure to 85mm and cut it with a Dremel tool
3. then cut each ends approx.4mm to make hole for screws.
4. put insulation tape or kapton tape on one side so it doesnt short the memory circuit.

add a strip of strong foam on top of the bottom ram:
