    as the original 2570p thread seems to be closed ( http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/hp-elitebook-2570p-owners-lounge.721550/), I´ll open a new one

    my battery latch is defective - bits of plastic broken, so the latch doesn´t catch anymore, battery can fall out - system without power.

    The original Latch Kit 685505-001 can be bought via Ebay (from Israel to Germany for 30,- Euro...)

    how difficult is changing the Latch Kit?
    Or should I try something different?
