    My XPS 18 is a great computer, but the kick stand legs just haven't been durable over the long term. The magnets stopped working consistently over a year ago, and just last evening, one of the legs broke off entirely.

    I found this helpful guide on how to replace these legs:

    Unfortunately, I couldn't find any place that actually has them in stock to buy.

    Does anyone know where I can go to find this very specific and specialized part? I would be nice if I could buy it from Dell directly.
