    Most of the display bezel on my friend's Dell has been broken and he needs to buy another one, problem is that his warranty has run out and he needs to buy a new bezel. Where can I get one? Also the backlight flickers and then shuts off whenever you move the laptop. Is this because the bezel has been damaged?

    For the bezel.. just look on eBay. There's plenty and they don't look terribly expensive. For the backlight... it could be a number of things. I'd guess there's something wrong with the display cable, but it could be the inverter or backlight itself.

    How did the bezel break in the first place? Was the laptop dropped?
