  • Genuine Dell OEM replacement part for Alienware 14 R1

  • Verify part number before ordering to guarantee proper installation

Replacement Base for Alienware 14 R1

This genuine Dell bottom base assembly replaces the original chassis on Alienware 14 R1 laptops that were built without an optical disc drive. It restores structural integrity and screw alignment for the lower case.

No optical-drive support included

The part lacks the drive bay slot and mounting points required for an ODD, so it only fits systems that shipped without one. Installing it on a model that originally included an optical drive will leave the opening uncovered and the drive unsupported.

Dell part number 45VT2 confirms fit

Matching this exact part number to the service-tag record is the only way to verify compatibility before ordering. A different base is required for Alienware 14 R1 units that include an optical drive.

Questions about this item

Will this bottom base fit my Alienware 14 R1 if I keep the original motherboard and cooling assembly?

Yes, this 45VT2 base assembly is built for the Alienware 14 R1 without an optical drive and aligns with the original mounting points for the motherboard and thermal module.

How can I confirm the base is seated correctly once installed?

All screw holes should line up with the chassis standoffs, the battery and SSD bays sit flush, and the system powers on without chassis flex or gaps along the palm-rest edge.

Does the 45VT2 base come with the rubber feet and screw set, or must I reuse the old ones?

The assembly includes the moulded rubber feet; screws are not supplied, so plan to reuse the original fastener kit or source a compatible Dell screw set separately.
