It's almost certain that your analysis is incorrect. I have never seen
a laptop where the LCD was so integrated with the lid that they had to
be replaced together (although I have seen instances where, to replace
the LCD, you ordered an entire lid). There is normally no fix for loose
hinges other than to replace the hinges (a very few laptops used to have
adjustable hinges .... have not seen that recently). Normally the
hinges are a part all by themselves (well, two parts), and you don't
necessarily have to replace either the lid or the lcd panel. I'm just
generalizing, however, as I don't know your model. Why don't you get
the service manual and see what it says?
