The common hinge mods have their downsides. First you have to disassemble the lid. I hate to do that because it's difficult and you may break your case. Also, that mod cannot be undone and you cannot remove the lid anymore.

My alternative mod goes without all those trouble and anyone can do it.

Prerequisites:

· black electrical tape

· knife

· ruler

· better a black than a platinum case

Just cut a strip of the electrical tape to the length of the hinge. Ordinary tape should have a width of 1.9mm, which is just perfect for this mod.

You need two layers of the tape. Just stick them together and than stick the whole strip on the backside of your Pandora's lid.

For even more friction, take a third strip, but make it just 1/3 as wide.

Lift the tape on the lid a bit up attach the thin strip underneath. Place it on the upside of the Pandora.

Now your lid is not that loose anymore and it has a perfect laptop mode.
