FS: Boe Hydis 15" Flexview UXGA LCDs (HV150UX1-100)

[JGA]

FOR SALE: Boe Hydis 15" Flexview LCD panel. Part number HV150UX1-100 (Lenovo FRU number 13N7076). Brand new, Grade A. Upgrade your 15" T60/T60p to 1600x1200 resolution!!

About a year ago, I bought 20 of these panels from a distributor in Taiwan. I sold at least a dozen of them to members of this forum. I only have two left. The panels are located in the USA and will be shipped from NH.

These panels are new, Grade A, and arrived sealed in the original factory cartons. Boe Hydis no longer manufactures this model, so these are new-old-stock manufactured in August 2008. On the side of the carton is the barcode number EGTH088000172. The third letter of the barcode (in this case "T") denotes the grade. Grade A = "T" and Grade B = "Q". Boe Hydis does not use any other grading levels (A+, A1, etc). The original IBM/Lenovo FRU number (13N7076) is printed on the sticker on the back of the panels.

I installed one of these panels into my T60p (2613-CTO) last year (I'm typing on it right now). I followed the instructions in Lenovo's free training videos...

It took me a couple of hours to complete the installation. The entire top assembly (with the hinges) must be removed from the base to swap the panel. The display looks incredible now!! I'm back to a bright screen with fantastic color for photo editing applications. I recommend that you install a new backlight inverter at the same time ($18 from Lenovo), although the inverter is easy to replace in the future without removing the entire panel again.

PRICE: $160 shipped (Paypal and USA addresses only). The panels will be well packed to prevent any damage. The buyer accepts complete responsibility for all installation issues and problems. If you break the panel or your laptop during installation, then I can not do anything to help you.

I haven't posted many times on this forum, but I've been on Ebay since 1998 (100% feedback rating). If you want to check my feedback, my Ebay username is "jeffarnold". If you have any questions, please send me a PM.
