Replacing silver trim on front panel of N91

3 replies · 6,566 views · Started 28 June 2006

Hello,
A tragedy happened!!! I have scratched this silver trim around music control buttons. I would like to replace it becuase I can not stand looking at it! Therefore I have two questions:
1. where can i get this spare part
2. how to replace (dismantle) sliding panel?

Thanks and regards,

M.

ok, I have found out how to take apart this trim. Do you have any idea where to get a spare part? I have seen couple of dummy phones on ebay. Do you have any experience with them? Are they made from the same materials as original phones? Do you think it is worthwhile taking this part out of such dummy phone?

Thanks again,

Marcin

The spare part you need is the slide bezel. They are widely available on the web.
I have made a pdf guide to disassembling the N91 (it is too large to upload):

Your requirements are quite simple and full disassembly is not necessary. Page 7 is all you will need to look at.
