Chosen Solution
MacBook Pro 17-inch Model A1212 Hi, I’ve not found any questions relating to this problem. The two fastening mechanisms that allow the top case to be held tightly against the bottom case no longer work. One plastic tab is missing from the right hand side fastener. As a result the top case (screen) always flips open. The only solution is to turn the Mac over so that the heaver bottom case keeps the Mac closed. Are there any spare parts for this problem? Thanks for any advice. magnumsharer
I believe you are talking about the hinges. Here are the parts: http://www.ifixit.com/Mac-Parts/MacBook-…
