    So yesterday I took out my X220T to do some work at my University here in Denmark. However when I took it out, I noticed that it had a crack on the lid, and I have no idea how i got it! The bag I carry it in, is pretty padded with protective foam, so it must have been something hitting it hard.

    Now I wonder; I've seen a lot of new lids on Ebay, and I've seen the maintenance manual for the X220T, however is it hard to replace the lid? I have some experience with electronics, however making my X220T completely useless by trying to repair it, is even worse :(
    My warranty expired half a year ago.
    Also will that crack eventually cause bigger problems?


    Regards
