SXGA+ to T43

#1 Post by clicker » Tue May 15, 2012 5:00 am

This screen to T43 2668-F5G.

Is this gonna work straight ahead or I need some other modifications? Is it worth it?

You'll need a different LCD cable and inverter, check the HMM for FRU numbers.

Only you can decide whether it's worth it. The seller has a good reputation, but the total price might come close to $200 by the time everything adds up...a lot of money to spend on a T43 upgrade nowadays.

That being said, if you really want it...go for it.

Good luck.

If I were not posting from my blackberry I'd hook you up with the link...

Check the LCD parts numbers for a 15" SXGA+ LCD in "product and parts detail" (I think) on Lenovo's site. You'll get there by choosing support/thinkpad and then putting your model number in the "quick path"...

It's all there...

Found it. Post was very helpful.

This panel is attractive, but I'll reconsider doing the mod because of the price.
