Unibody MBP Cracked Glass

[pdechavez]

Hello All,

The hinge on the bottom left corner of my macbook pro has seperated from the glass bezel making it bend in the corner. The glass cracked because when the lid is closed the loose area bends the glass. I will post pictures up but any suggestions for now? Apple is charging $800+ to replace the entire screen which is very impractical since its only the hinge and glass that needs replacement.

All help is very much appreciated!

You could try it yourself from iFixit.

thanks for the reply. I've checked it out but I'm not sure what parts I need. What is the black hinge part called officially?

It would be easier to tell what parts you need when you post the photos, but we still couldn't be certain.
