    Replacing LCD lid on A8J?

    I have an A8Js and today I noticed that a small piece of plastic had cracked off of one of the corners of the lid. It's a tiny piece but I'm a perfectionist about these sorts of things (especially on a $1300 laptop) and I don't want any dirt or anything to get inside of the laptop.

    Does anyone know if this part is easy to replace? Asus sells it for $26 at http://estore.asus.com/shop/item.asp?itemid=3281&catid=499 but I want to see if anyone knows before I order. Also it won't void my warranty with Asus if I replace it myself will it?

    Any advice appreciated, thanks!
