I have a plusview 1000amg. The front door broke off. They sent me a new one. I don't know how to get the door on without breaking it. Can someone help me?

Zarick, The Antec front door is the thing on the entire case. I broke the hinged area trying to put it on. I was able to wiggle it on and I used Super Glue to glue back the broken part. It works and after 4 months the glue is still holding.

I originally sprayed silicone on the hinge thinking this would make it easier. But I still broke it.

I think you have to be a rocket scientist.

You just put the bottom hinge pin in first, then push down on the top hinge pin tab ans slip it under the hole in the case. It snaps into place.

IF it works like other Antecs, push down on the top inside finger on the door and it just slides on.

If not, just trying to help.

Hold the door 90 degrees from the closed position. Tip the top slightly to the left. Insert the door onto the lower hinge pin. Depress the retaining tab on the upper door hinge pin hole. Swing the top of the door to the right until installed on the upper hinge pin. Release the retaining tab.

It's really easy, after the first time....
