Go to SolutionDell Latitude E6520 loose screen hinge
So i wanted to replace the screen on my Dell and now after everything is screwed in the screen is really loose. I have now tried installing the old screen again if maybe the current one is thicker but same thing is happening. I don't really know how to describe it so i uploaded an video here.
That would mean the hinge mounts (back cover) are the issue. How much money you want to throw at a system with a total value of under $50 is a question only you can answer, but there is a plentiful supply of working used systems for that -- and plenty of parts available (try EBay for both).
@ejn63 Is this the part I need? https://www.ebay.com/itm/186288714124?_skw=dell+latitude+e6520+hinge+mount&itmmeta=01JN1YGGKJ9RKR530MZHV216WX&hash=item2b5fac318c:g:ApkAAOSwBKllwmmz&itmprp=enc%3AAQAKAAAA4FkggFvd1GGDu0w3yXCmi1dCRmN3ltCliG2fjkc130rhZ0%2FqrRHXcmMbflsZ6RUaJKPejbpiBGvxqW1%2FUYprTKgx5Zf2n9e%2BxHKnZSNJBlkU%2BOiEQoyQoNq1BbaeaPAh%2Ba6e9nO1H5n8XRjyLxKnQaFBoB1Ebr7lN6rYafah29Z7qfFgbiGRWW1LJg3pPBmjTkCTDQDPfVpQm9SqQPjC6PidVkT2IrjaqHXLa7CjaQdNSinUzBu3HTDytItCOsnZpFAOkKJkDwshel6hzvk9Cf%2BIY0hViTjFlKzF76OTk3dg%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR_qJwr6oZQ

Hi
My opinion is the screw is "moving" and therefore not tight enough.
A shim/padding would be my suggestion or a washer initially.
As @ejn63 states it is tricky to tell from the video(s).
