Help. Kobo Wifi directional pad.

I know that it's a bit of old kit, but this one was given to me by a friend and it has a great deal of sentimental value.

The directional pad at the bottom right has almost completely disintegrated, and I cannot for the life of me find a replacement.

I was wondering if someone had a kobo wifi that that had an intact rubber pad but had some other fatal issue that they could put up on ebay or something and I could by. or if anyone knew of one? or just a replacement pad?

thanks!

I got a used kobo wifi and the d-pad started to crumble. I just took it off completely and now use an soft eraser to press the contacts. So far that is working just fine.

Quick update: The D-Pad gave out and basically the ereader is no longer any use as a ereader. Instead, I added some black and white pictures to the kobo and now use it as a picture viewer.

Another update: The battery began to rapidly sometimes after three days so after a while my kobo would just be showing a blank screen after getting tired of constantly charging. However, after charging it another time I found a setting to display cover when powered off. So now my new digital picture frame viewer can display images indefinitely when powered off.
