    Help!

    Someone has dropped my SZ right onto the front left corner and I have a seriously mangled (albeit functional) laptop. It appears three parts of the chassis need to be replaced.

    I have found the Sony parts website. I have been through it extensively.

    For reasons unknown to me, Sony have decided to name the replacement parts in a fashion which makes them impossible to relate to what I need to replace.

    I have figured out the palmrest, but can't figure out what part names (escutcheon? what the hell is that???) for the left side panel (covering the SD card and PCMCIA slots) and the back of the screen.

    Can anyone help? I have a SZ61 (I think that's a SZ650 in the States), the LED model with carbon fibre chassis (although not the premium carbon fibre).

    Any input would be appreciated....
