Damaged Power Jack

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300-1AQ, and noticed today that the power jack is damaged somehow. Its moving within the laptop and am finding it hard to chage it because it moves inward just out of reach of a charger.

    I have found this website ( http://www.insidemylaptop.com/repair-damaged-power-jack-toshiba-satellite-l305-l355-laptops/ ) which gives advice about how to go about fixing this yourself. Im not super confident at this (more out of fear Ill just make a mess), does any one know of someplace I could bring it that would fix it cheaply....PM me if you prefer. Would it be possible to hold it in place using pliers and just using a bit of super glue around the edges to hold it in place temporally until I can bring it somewhere decent, or is the opening up part quite easy and I should be able to do it? Thanks!!

    (This isnt breaking any rules right?!)

    Pliers and surperglue as a temporary solution is a big no. If you haven't got soldering experience bring it to a professional or someone that has soldering experience.
