The plastic bits from the top cover holding the screws have broken off from all points. I've tried glueing it with no success . Help.. Any ideas to fix. I've rung just about every wrecker that I know of and they are all out or have not come across one. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a long shot but they might be able to help. Contact vdo and see if they have any somewhere. Would a motherboard standoff or similar set into steel putty work? It looks like there is room on the plastic in the inside to create hooks to attach it with rubber bands. Get creative, you'll work something out. Google various ways to fix stuff like this. If all else fails throw it in the bin and buy a watch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to try the motherboard standoff suggestion. Let's see if I can really stuff this up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I know which models, I can ask wreckers. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
