Replacement Base for Studio XPS 1640

This genuine Dell bottom base frame (part Y708R) fits the Studio XPS 16 1640 laptop. It is a plastic and metal alloy chassis in black and silver. The part is sold new and excludes screws and any door or cover pieces.

Upgrade from a cracked or warped chassis

The base replaces the original lower housing when it is broken, bent or missing mounting points. The jump is worth it when the existing frame no longer holds internal components securely or prevents proper assembly of the palm rest and keyboard deck.

For owners of the non-TV-tuner 1640 model

This base suits repair technicians and owners restoring a Studio XPS 16 1640 that never included the TV tuner option. Buyers whose unit has the built-in TVT antenna port should look elsewhere because this frame will not accommodate that cutout.

Questions about this item

Does the Y708R base frame fit a Studio XPS 16 1640 that has the TV tuner option?

No. This base is for 1640 systems without the built-in TV tuner and will not accommodate the TV tuner antenna port.

What screws and covers must I supply when installing the Y708R bottom base?

Screws and door or cover pieces are not included. Re-use the original fasteners and covers from the laptop during installation.

Will the Y708R base require any periodic replacement or maintenance after fitting?

The base is a structural frame with no moving parts or consumables, so it does not need scheduled replacement or maintenance.
