Tell your agent you will fit a new one and keep the receipt and deduct from the rent. To be honest, buy exactly the same model and fit it yourself. Its a 15 min job if youre swapping like for like but for god sake, turn the power off at the main switch. Theyre about 3000thb

If my flight arrives in Bangkok at 11:35 PM, will that affect the start date of my 60-day visa?

No immigration is first. You might get away with hanging around although immigration officers MAY take a view that you landed on the day before. No exact answer when that close to midnight. Try it and let us know as its a good thing to know
