Tara always said i had a screw loose !!!

i think you have to replace the whole casing, im sure its still a spare part from B&O.

Thanks Iconic-AV,

I have now tried that and it opens the whole machine up! (5 Screws by the way! and thanks for the tip on that little clip in the center it nearly got away!). That allows me to remove the front case but it doesn't allow me to remove the metal front from the plastic casing as they would appear to be stuck together. If I can get a non working BeoTalk 1200 cheap I could now open it up and repalce the internals with my working stuff but would reather just replace the metal cover.

What I was wondering is - Is that thin metal part removeable? Do they make a spare? And can I remove it (clean off what ever sticks the metal to the plastic) and replace it or do I have to replace the whole front outer case?

Easy, just unscrew the 4 screws at the back and the whole front panel comes off, watch for the clip in the center, it will try to make a run for it.

I managed to drop my BeoCom 6000 and it bounced off the front of my BeoTalk 1200. The only damage was a dent to the front of the BeoTalk. It is on the top part of the brushed metal front (as per the picture)

The metal has bent up on the right and has come unstuck and although I could stick it down again, I'd still have the dent! It looks like the whole brushed metal panel is stuck in place. Does anyone know if you can buy a replacement front panel.

Thanks
