So you think that will fix it? How will I put it on? Drill a hole through the top first down the hole?

You're talking about this area yes?




I would disassemble and see about how to attach a new hinge blindly. Nhen you resassemble, none of the fasteners would show on the outside.

Attaching a hinge to the underside is really the only option that I know of. They commonly break from years of use.
