Need A Repair Manual/disassemble Info For A Toshiba Satellite P845-s4200

I have a Toshiba Satellite P845-S4200 and did not drop or mistreat my laptop. The cover or lid has separated from keyboard/bottom section where the plastic parts on cover and bezel attach to the hinges. These plastic parts have broken on both sides, and after reading postings on the Toshiba forums site have discovered that this was a defect in the design of this model laptop, along with other models of Toshiba laptops. There was a class action on various models but although this is common with my model I did not see this model listed. Although I did nothing to cause this damage I saw no other answer but to locate and purchase at my own expense the various parts I needed and pay shipping as well.I have purchased replacement hinges, metal cover and bezel parts so I can enable my laptop to once again be usable. I am hoping this will not be a complacated endeavor to put new parts on and once again have my computer' it was less than year old. I need a service manual or step by step instructions of how to open up laptop, check the existing hinges to see if damaged, replace hinges if necessary, and assemble replacement cover and bezel with plastic areas that attach to hinges, attach display and wires to new cover and close all back up to have functioning laptop. Where can I find step by step instructions with photos how to do this?

No repair manual available. The videois a complete disassembly to replace the screen, not a step by step for your specifc problem but has enough detail to do the job.
