MacBook Top Cover

[brooklinebiker]

Hi everyone,
I own a white early 2009 13 inch Macbook. I need to replace the top cover and am trying to find the part/model number for the cover. Does anyone know the number or where I can find it?
Thanks!

Don't have my MB with me but I believe the serial and model number can be found on the bottom casing.

I don't see the numbers on the outside. Will I need to open the machine to find them?

No try going to About This Mac (top left Apple logo) --> More Info. It should be there underneath Hardware Overview.

Hi Ann,
Thanks for responding. I just looked under hardware and did not see a listing for the top cover part number. Any other ways to get the number?

Hi Ann,
Thanks. The link on your response took me to a page for MacBook PROS, which did not have info on my MacBook (not a Pro).

Sorry about that! I skipped over the MacBook part. You can manually look up the model number here http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201608 or perhaps enter the serial # into EveryMac http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/. I hope you are able to get the model number once and for all.

Hi Ann,
Thanks for your follow up. Unfortunately, I struck out again in trying to find the part number for the top case.

when you say top cover do you mean where the keyboard goes and is usually cracked? ifixit.com sells them, they're $109 and they say that the same cover will fit all non unibody macbooks. go to ifixit.com, click on parts and follow the guide.
