Can I use the keyboard from an E520 in an E530?

#1 Post by fruhlpmd » Thu Feb 19, 2015 3:55 pm

I've been quite dissatisfied with the construction quality of my E530 since the day I received it. Primarily, the trackpad is so annoyingly horrible, I've often wanted to smash it against the wall. I had owned a E520 prior to this, and it's construction was immeasurably better and of much higher quality. I was wondering whether it may be possible to swap the keyboard assembly from a e520 with that of a e530? Can anyone possibly advise me on this? Many thanks in advance for any who might help......fruhlpmd.

Welcome to the forum!

Unfortunately, it is NOT possible.
