IMG_2324.JPG So I have a mid 2012 Macbook Pro and I've had to replace a screen hinge on another pro model from this era because it was in very bad shape. This time the hinge cover is starting to crack but for now it isn't a big deal and I wondering if anyone knew about specific types of glue or fixes that would avoid this from getting worse for the time being?
Thanks.

this isn't hinge, it's a plastic cover, £10 part, easy to replace
Sorry you're right, changed it in the post. I know it's replaceable but I was wondering if someone knew about some heat resistant glue for this because otherwise I would save my money.
