    Hello,
    Newbie here. I picked up a MSI GX630 in need of lid repair to resell. The plastic hinge mounts are broken on the left side. This apparently is the weak link on this model. I searched eBay and found two used top covers. One was $100 and the other was $130. Does anyone know where I can find used case parts at a reasonable price.

    Thanks in advance,
    Blufx

    All the gx620, gx623, gt627, gt628, gx630, gx633, gx640, and gt640 parts are the same. So search for these covers, but after some time they all broke.

    Thank you pretty lady for that information. If and when I find one, I'll see if it can be reinforced to help prevent it from breaking again.
