Step 17Indestructible repair for the broken HP DV 9000 laptop hinge & case
Take LCD bezel and flip over. Then cut the 2 clip contact points off
with a razor, smooth to the bezel. If you did grind down the face of
the bracket against the hinge edge, when you snap the face bezel
back it should close back like new or if you didnt you will have a very
unnoticable gap in side, but will be stronger over long term. I dont
know how long this will last I only did this yesterday (4/17/08) but
seems to be working fine.
*UPDATE* As of 4/27/08 and alot of excessive testing the fix is holding up like new.
