    I'm trying to replace a broken hinge on my dad's laptop for him, but i can't tell exactly what they are connected to since they are both kind of busted. Is it connected to the palm rest? the Power button strip? bottom base? I have a photo below to show it. also if you could give a link to a product replacement, i'd be most grateful! Thank you!

    thank you for the reply, but i just need the hinge covers. the hinges work fine, they just need the plastic pieces covering them up! :)
