Replacement Chassis

[SpyderTracks]

After my laptop was returned from RMA they had informed me that the parts for the repair were no longer available, and Clevo did not have any replacement parts to complete the repair PcS returned my RMA fee, however I am still unable to repair the laptop, so I am trying to locate the following spare parts for my laptop that needs repairing. Clevo Germany told me that the parts are no longer available but could not offer me any alternative parts to complete the repair.
These are the required parts for a Clevo N151CU laptop:-
HINGE L (SK7) N150ZU - 6-33-N15Z1-0L2
HINGE R (SK7) N150ZU - 6-33-N15Z1-0R2
TOP CASE MODULE N151ZU - 6-39-N15Z2-114
TOP CASE MODULE N150ZU - 6-39-N15Z2-013
Any help in this matter would be much appreciated. If there is any alternative to the above or any suggestions that will fit my requirements I would appreciate please?
regards

If parts are no longer available from the manufacturer or OEM your only option is to try to find used parts, it’s not something we’d be able to help with. We can only recommend PCS or the manufacturer.

Its not as if you have alternative manufacturers that stock parts, these are specific to this chassis, only clevo make them.

Any system has a supported lifespan, this is why you really need to take care of equipment

I fear you may be a victim of built-in-obsalecense. Laptops are superseded within a year or two and parts production stops.

Your best option is to trawl online auction sites looking for another laptop of the same model that you can cannibalise for the parts.

With regards to the hinges, not all hinges are built the same, and plenty of manufacturers sadly cheap out on their hinges to cut costs. I would not be surprised if Clevo did the same on some of their models.

As for your options, I'd like to second the suggestion to look around for used parts. Managed to save my Proteus VII that way after PCS and Quanta stopped working together. Clevo models are pretty common, IIRC, so there's a good chance you'll find them somewhere.
