Title: My TG16 is missing the back cover that's supposed to cover the back of the unit.

I got the system today FINALLY, and it had everything I needed, but it's missing the back part that covers the port where you hook up things like the CD attachment and whatever. What can I do? Can I buy this part somewhere?

You should be happy it's missing. That thing's a real pain.

Yeah, it tends to fall off of its own accord.  Just get the other expansion port cover (CD).   :D

I'd LOVE to get the CD Add-on, but I don't know how to get it or how much it's worth. I've NEVER seen it on eBay. Without anything on the back of the system, it feels kinda strange.

They're not that uncommon.  There's one up for bids here. (http://cgi.ebay.com/Turbo-Grafx-16-cd-system-TurboGrafx-16-Rare-w-Card_W0QQitemZ120094845999QQcategoryZ62054QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

Funny you should ask that Moto i think i have one still.

I forgot year it was early 90's or some thing.

At the time i traded the, TG16+Turbo CD away for some Sega CD stuff.

To make a long story short i forgot to throw in the cover when i did the trade  :oops:

Hmmm it might be around still but i think it's packed it away.
