Hello everyone, I just had a used Canon Pro 100 delivered to me and realised the top cover is detached from the plastic hinges. Does anyone know how to put it back on?

I would try to remove the screws in the 4 corners this removes the cover layer and probably you can access the hinges.

Here’s a way to fit the top cover back on again, insert one side into position and while holding the top cover half open slide the cover backwards into it's right position, it goes in with a big snap, but it takes a lot of efford (brute force)..

It might help if you remove the two side covers to relieve the tension..

I confirm, the solution from "The Hat" worked. Yes, it requires brute force. No, you do not need to remove the side covers.

THANK YOU!!!
