Took apart my laptop to replace the keyboard (a friend spilled red bull on it). Ordered a new keyboard but didn't come with screws. Haven't been able to find anything reliable online for what to get. I order some but they were way too small. Wondering if someone else has done this and could let me know?

I would contact the seller of the keyboard to get the needed screws, or just return the part to get your money back. While more expensive, I would just replace the full uppercase assembly MacBook Pro 16" (2019) Upper Case Assembly. I’ve long since given up trying to replace the keyboards on there own.

Check the teardown guide on ifixit here but I am fairly certain there is no screws because the keyboard is riveted down and as such is not really considered repairable. Unless you posted the wrong model and in which case I typically simply use the screws from the old keyboard on the new one.

@eclectricc Yes, it is riveted down. However there is usually people that sell screws when you do the keyboard replacement. I had bought a set but they did not fit. I had done the same thing on a 2013 MacBook pro as well. I just can't find anything reputable for screw sizes on this newer stuff.
