Door hinge On Power Mac G3

Hello again, I was cleaning out my G3 because the inside metal was covered in dust, and I am having problems with the hinge that is underneath the logic board (A big plastic sorta plate). When I went to close the case with it attached, I had to use all my force to get it back open, which caused me to break the nice little handle on the front of the side.  :-/  However, if I don't put the screws in and try to open it, it opens just like it should, except for the plate comes loose if you try to close and open it again. Does anyone know how this plate is supposed to be installed? I would like to restore this thing without breaking it anymore...
