I am using Acer Aspire A315-56-323J. My laptop's right side hinge is broken. I want to change it as well as the whole plastic frame around the screen. How much does it cost and where to get it repaired?

[Edited the thread to add model name]

    Hi @badboyoffline

    About $90 DIY but a shop or Acer Service may charge you several hundred dollars (better safe for a new laptop). My hinge and frame cracked after 3 years dropping my Aspire5 a515-54G several times. I just superglued the mountings on the MOBO and hinge supports to the lid and it works fine till I buy a new laptop next year or so. I no longer close the lid but use the F1 (Z) key to put the laptop to sleep. When traveling I carefully open and close the lid with my thumbs and index fingers at the base of the lid to avoid stress on the hinge-lid supports. Here is a link where to get the hinge assembly and frames:
