AR11M screen hinges

[Dekesh]

Hi all,

Recently both of the metal hinges that allow the screen on my AR11M to move up and down both snapped. I have tried super glueing them but that didn't work. Does anybody know where I can buy a set of hinges for this laptop or does anyone have any other solutions?

The only place I know is Nexttronics in the USA - they will ship worldwide.

The bad news is that they are $61.91 EACH plus $20 shipping.

Have a look at parts 111 and 112 here: -

Ouch! that is quite pricey for a two pieces of metal. Does anybody know anywhere else that I can get these hinges, preferably in the UK.
