T42 battery clip - repair/replace possible?

#1 Post by brentpresley » Wed Feb 22, 2006 12:18 am

OK, so I just bought this T42:

The only defect in it is the left battery clip is broken (visible in the picture of the back).

So here are my questions:
How does one go about fixing this?

Can you get just the clip, or do you have to order the entire set of plastics?

Do you have to take the motherboard out to to the repair?
