I replaced a hinge by peeling the side of the screen open (just the border) and took out the broken pieces. screwed a new hinge in and knocked carefully the peeled border back. It is a little-bit bubbled now, but works great. Use a heavy glue to keep the frame together and you've just saved a lot of money.
Good luck.

Hello, I recently purchased a GigE 667 Tibook with a backlighting problem and broken hinges. The backlighting is under control, now its time to work on the hinges. They have the classic syndrom of snapping off, so I assume part of them are stuck inside the powerbook display. How do I go about removing these oieces so the new ones can fit in, has anybody done this?
Also, what cautions can I take so the hinges do not snap again once I install new ones.
Thanks, Geoff
