(Solved) Looking for hinge for Sony Vaio

[cyde_ePhex]

Hey TN's. I have a client that is needing to have a hinge replaced on a Sony Vaio model

VPCSA2CFX (client provided from laptop)
or
PCG- 41213L (listed as on Sony's website)

I have had no luck in finding a pair (might as well replace them both). The client has not yet provided me with the laptop, so this is the best information that I have so far.

I have tried ebay, sparepartswarehouse, laptopaid and one or two others I cannot remember

Any luck or suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

The design on those things are so brittle, when you do get the new hinges loosen them up a bit about x2 turns. The issue is they are to tight when out of factory I have found. After time the hinge will crack the top cover.

Thanks for the tip!
