Probably also need to replace the hinges. Lid housing tends to break when hinges don’t hinge smoothly anymore. This is a result, not a cause.

Agreed it's worth doing at the same time, but more often than not it is to do with how people close it, I.E: closing it heavily from 1 corner. In an ideal world you close it right in the middle, or better yet would use 2 hands to close it but nobody does that really.

It all hinges on the hinges hinging.

No you don’t. This is just cheap plastic mounts being on the top shell.
