My 84 is getting old and battered, and is starting to bother me. The calc slides right out of the case when held upside down and is missing a couple rubber grips. Is there somewhere I can buy a new casing (and grips)? I did this for my nintendo ds lite (http://www.amazon.com/Transparent-Clear-Blue-Nintendo-Complete-Replacement/dp/B00ACLRS8O) a while ago and I'd like to do it to my calc.

That's exactly the same as my 83+ :P
I think:

For the sliding case, you can also buy one that is not monotone like this one (http://www.amazon.com/Guerrilla-Case-Cover-Titanium-Calculator-Starbursts/dp/B00D5Q9LZG/ref=pd_tcs_subst_e_1/184-2025725-0130254?ie=UTF8&refRID=1ASDGMQZ4C2BM2BTSFY6) for example (not the most beautiful but the first one I found).

I am surprised TI isn't charging $129.99 for each part. But yeah that would be the best place.

Hmm... Is there any way to replace the whole outside though?
-
Buy a clearly broken one off ebay for 10=2-$ and replace the case with it? That is what I tend todo .
-
That's a really good idea... I think I'll do that. Thank you :)
-
np. Do know you need a torx 6 screwdriver to open the calculator case!

Ah crap. Home Depot, here I come...

If you have a tri-wing, it will work too. Just don't screw and unscrew with it too often or it will strip.

Really? I thought I had tried that a while ago... I'll check again.
edit: It works.
