15.4" T60 lid assembly in 15.4" T61?

#1 Post by brchan » Fri Apr 15, 2016 8:12 pm

Just wondering, has anyone tried this? If it works, then I imagine it might even be possible in a W500/T500.

You can swap a complete 15.4" T60 chassis/mobo with one from a T61, so a lid would seem just as likely.

The T500/W500 lid will not fit a T60/61, but the lids between T60/61 are swappable if the same size, but the parts within them are not.

Thanks for the replies. I knew the 4:3 ratio assemblies were swappable for T60/T61 models, but wasn't sure if it was the same case for the 15.4" ones.
