ION Air LP–Replacement Lid Hinge

ION Air LP – Replacement Lid Hinge (Turntable Dust Cover Repair)

This model is a replacement hinge for the lid (dust cover) of the ION Air LP vinyl turntable.

The original hinge on this player is made from fragile plastic and tends to break after repeated opening and closing of the lid (or sometimes after an unexpected child interaction).

This 3D printable replacement part allows you to repair your turntable easily instead of replacing the entire unit.
