    I have had my Studio 1555 for a couple of years now and the left hand side clip holding the cover and front bezel has snapped. This means there is a big gap.

    I am looking to replace it, and I think I will need to replace both the bezel and cover, but not 100% sure.

    And looking at the cover it looks like I can't replace the back cover without removing the whole screen due to the hinges. I'm sure it's possible to just replace the bezel without removing the whole screen.

    Does anyone have any advice? Or know how much it should cost to get it done by a laptop repair place?

    Dell want £145 to replace it so that's out the window
