WTB: LCD panel for T30, XGA or even SXGA

#1 Post by Norway Pad » Mon Sep 12, 2011 3:12 pm

The XGA panel in one of my T30s finally died this evening, after every little twisting action and movement of the lid has made it flicker ever since I bought it. "Swap the cable", you might say. Initially I expected it to be the cable too, but when I opened up the lid once, I noticed a dent on the inner edge of the LCD bezel and also on the edge of the LCD panel itself. So I assume the lid has been forced close once while some small object has been trapped between the lid and the computer case.

So I am looking for a LCD panel that will fit. Preferably one without too much yellow tint and a CCFL that's still bright. A XGA in good condition is ok, and if someone has a SXGA lying on a shelf gathering dust, let me know about that too. A complete lid is also an option, as it saves me the hassle of actually opening up the lid. For a XGA -> SXGA upgrade I guess I need the cable to go with it anyway.

Notice that I live in Norway for now, so it needs to be shipped here. If you are totally against shipping abroad, it can be mailed to my wife in the US, so she can forward it to me. Contact me for details. Shipping costs are no worry, these parts are impossible to find here.

Thank you!
