    Was installing a SSD and cracked the HD cover/panel - doh! Anywhere where I can buy a new one?

    Yeah, that drive bay is ridiculously difficult to pull out...the tab in the center gets stuck (done on purpose for revenue generation??? :mad: )

    Anyway, you should be able to purchase it from HP if eBay doesnt work out. The part number is 603795-001 (this is what they call the Plastics Kit and I am sure includes several other parts). I don't know if they sell the door seperately.

    Good luck.

    Having looked into ordering the plastics kit before, I can attest that you will have to buy the whole thing.
