    Hi all,

    Does anyone know where I can get spares for the P170HM3 in the UK (although I will pay for international delivery if necessary)? Unfortunately my laptop bag broke and the rear corner of the laptop hit the floor and now the screen hinge is loose. I need the top and bottom parts of the case.

    Thanks for any help :)

    My previous NP8130 (15in equivalent of your P170hm) hit the floor for similar reasons, but in my case one of the palm rest corners broke. I only had to replace the top plate and it was tricky. Sager will sell a bare top plate for cheap, or a fully assembled one for a lot of money which includes the touchpad and speakers.

    Your model is obviously different, but in my case I opted for the cheap bare top plate. The tricky part is on the NP8130, the touchpad is glued to the top plate. I pried if off carefully with a credit card, then used spray glue to reattach it to the new plate. Your laptop may use screws instead of glue there, but I certainly would have appreciated the warning.

    Either way, replacing both plates is major surgery on a laptop, and you need to be very caeeful.
