The following site seems to think that you can use junker Sun 4 keyboards
for parts:

Hi
Some types of foam don't last long. I wonder if one
could make some with closed cell foam instead. It
last much longer but is a little stiffer than the
foam that they seem to be using.
If it is a capacitive you should be able to make
new capacitors with some aluminum foil and clear
tape.
Just my thoughts

Aluminized mylar is easy to come by in the form of mylar punched-tape
stock. It is quite expensive these days, but a single roll would go a
long way. Also, aluminized mylar is widely used in balloons and novelty
items, which could be harvested for material. I have no idea if the
thickness is critical, but this sort of material would likely be much
more conformant than aluminum foil.
