The case on Laptop that also holds the screen hinge broke. Lookin for replacement keyboard case/ palmrest Toshiba p875-s7102

The case on my laptop has broke where the screw attaches the bottom case to the keyboard case. This is also where the hinge is mounted. The screen is now wobbly and the corner of the laptop case bends open. I am looking for a new case for a Toshiba Satellite P875-S7102. Please help me find one.

Tons of screens and keyboards on ebay, no shells for that model though. You may just need to keep looking for a dead used one, or a working used one and swap your hard drive into it.

Thanks!! I was taking a look around and couldn't seem to find one. Upon further investigation it looks like I'm actually after the palmrest. I will keep looking and hopefully one will turn up.

Any tips where to look for dead or used computers?

I doubt the palmrest is the part you need, that is just the bezel around the keyboard, sometimes with the touchpad. It won't have any mounting brackets since it's not part of the structure. The hinge is attached to the bottom part of the computer, or should be. If you post some pictures it would help. You can check craigslist, maybe some local computer shops for parts.
