can this be repaired?

im going to guess this needs to be replaced, but thought i would ask first.

i just received a Kenwood Excelon X679 head unit today and the AM/FM/Fast Forward/ Rewind button snapped off in transit. it came right off at its mounting point on the PCB. (theres a little mount on the pcb that it attatches to. the mount is there and intact on the pcb, the **** broke off of that)

i just have this feeling that if i try to solder it, itll never work the way its supposed to.

Call Kenwood. They may offer a flat fee to fix it.

I know Alpine is $90 to fix anything.
