Guys, ordered the OEM panel with buttons from FCP, but I'm reading conflicting info online.
Some say panel is only to hold the buttons together and you should pop new buttons out and replace the old cracked ones, while others on YouTube and other forums say the panel itself should be replaced.

How do I go about doing this? I have 3 buttons missing and I wanna get it right the first time.

Thanks
