    You have to take the whole back panel from another SNES since the AC adapter port is molded in the panel. Either that or switch shells with another SNES if the shell allows it (the earlier SNES has a different shell than the rest).

    My friend had his cap come off too, but his ac adpater still works on it like that, as long as the pin on the adapter plug slides in between the two prongs

    I'm a collector, but only to a certain extent.
    Not as extreme as Rickstilwell though.[/quote]

    If you slightly bend one of the pins up and slightly bend the other down, it will hold the plug fairly tight. It should work fine as long as you have them bent just right and you do not move the system around too much when it is powered on.
