Hi Katie
 
Try this (for the big chippie thing LOL):
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins5100/en/sm/palmrest.htm#1084976
 
Im not too sure on the warranty side of things- you might find the warranty is no longer... dont know if that matters to you or not!
 
Also, the 9200 should fit since there is a 5150 that ships with this GPU. So I'm guessing that the 5150 has the same housing for the video that the 5100 does .... at least I hope so!
 
good luck 8)
