LF: screen lid locking hooks for A22m

#1 Post by synchromesh » Fri Aug 17, 2007 1:12 pm

I have an A22m with a 15in screen that has both plastic lid locks broken so the lid doesn't lock any more. Does anyone have these for sale/trade/free?

Probably

When my T20's latches broke, it was cheaper for me to buy ten on eBay than two anywhere else (including eBay.) If you can confirm that yours uses the same latches as the 14" T20, I'd be happy to give you a couple.

This assumes, of course, that I can dredge them up in my exceedingly cluttered abode, but I remember what their box looks like so there's a pretty fair chance of finding them.

Latches are NOT the same for 14" and 15" LCD...I've unfortunately had to learn that through experience...

I have one (can't remember which) somewhere. but that will have to wait until Monday for me to look for it...if I find it, it's yours.

Should you find a pair in the meantime by all means buy it and let me know if there are any more available.

All the best.

I actually have extra T20 latches but they don't fit, I've already tried. These must be specific to 15in screens or A2x series.

They ARE specific to 15" A2 series, and nothing else fits...as I've stated before, I can probably solve 50% of your problem Monday night...

Someone should start making these, all jokes aside. I've got them in some quantity for T2 and T3, but finding them for A2 is a pain in the neck...

Yeah, one is better than nothing, if you can find it, I'll take it. Waiting till Monday is no problem, just let me know if you find it.
