LCD latches for Thinkpad R31

[EdipisReks]

a friend of mine dropped her R31 and both of the LCD latches broke. i've repaired several thinkpads in the past, so i know i can fix it for her, but i'm having trouble finding replacement latches specifically for the R31. does anyone know if there is a compatible latch made for another model? it has been suggested to me on another forum that i try to find a LCD misc parts kit, but i haven't been able to find one for the R31. thanks!

There is a list of FRU's at the bottom of this page, you may be able to find something in there. Also of course you can just call tech support and at least have them quote you the price

i saw that FRU list, it unfortunately is ambiguous about what part the latches actually come with. i might just give them a call, though. thanks.
