You can use the HMM...

It shows to to access every component from the laptop.

If your thinkpad X61 was not ordered with WWAN then chances are your thinkpad doesn't have second Mini PCI slot.

In any case, following are the videos for removal and installation:

Were a bleary-eyed Surveyor and a DRUNKEN ENGINEER.

You have 2 slots. I have my Atheros card from Lenovo and then installed the ITM that I received later into the second pci-e slot.
