Are you looking for the floppy cover, or the hard drive cover?
If it's the hard drive cover, that's why it was $400
Cause the part costs $71.00 plus shipping and tax!

  Hi!

  I'm new to this list, but I've been reading it for about a month now courtesy of the MIT archives. I recently purchased a 600E off ebay for $400, and it's in great shape - even has the IBM warranty on it until 4/2002. My main question is if anyone can provide me with a source (maybe a member on this list?) who sells the various rubber door covers for the 600 series - I need the FDD cover, and for that 1" by 1" piece of plastic IBM parts in Colorado wants $71.50 (!). I spoke with a rep from IBM tech support and they told me that this was considered wear and tear, so it's obviously not covered under the warranty.

  The FRU is 05K4828.
  Thanks.
