Replacement mPCIE screws

#1 Post by djmdjm » Tue Apr 23, 2013 5:47 pm

Hi,

I recently replaced the wireless module on my x61s and naturally stripped the screws. I was able to semi-recover one by slotting it with a dremel (miniature angle grinder inside a laptop: why not?) and it is holding the replacement card in, but I'd like something more permanent. Are the retaining screws a standard part or available anywhere at reasonable cost?

Thanks,
Damien

All screws can be bought here: http://www.laptopscrews.com/contact.htm
What you are looking for is: M2 × 2.5 mm
Probably available in a decent hardware store or where they sell miniature trains etc.
