See post #17, the one there is the right one because if you read the text correctly it will be the one on the right. And if yours doesn't have that sticker under the feet, you can at least see how it should look.
Very cool to see! How did you manage to click it in? (I even wonder how they did it when it was manufactured, did a lot break?) I would suggest to sand the outside with sandpaper. (first a coarse one to remove the 'steps' and then with a fine grit to get it a bit smooth.) Then paint it in the correct color. (You can get the correct color if you go to a (car)paint specialist store)Hi LCARS,
A friend printed the foot for me and it works very well! Thanks for making the model and sharing it. If anyone wants to see how it looks and works, I took a video of me installing it, and one showing it in action. https://photos.app.goo.gl/v2kGqzEkqhv37ZuN8
while the color isn't perfect, it's close enough that it just looks a little yellowed instead of a full on modern replacement.And this finally made me get my own 3d printer - that stuff is awesome!
Cheers

Just wanted to mention that I've had good luck with just recapping the original LCD's on a couple of these. So that might be worth the try for just a few cents.I have a Portable 486c with a dead LCD, as well, and I’m going to attempt the replacement with a different LCD, the Mitsubishi AA104VH01.
I’ve just ordered the parts, so I’ll update the thread when my LCD arrives.
