Blue ray mod for T410 with PIC (and others with slim serial ultrabay).

If you have Panasonic UJ8A2 (FRU: 45N7457) and want blue ray - it is possible.
You can order original BD-drive from Lenovo. Or find UJ272 BD-writer somewhere and replace plastic elements (bezel + lock bracket + rear "pin"). Only thing to need some modding - rear plastic "pin" have hook that needs to be cutted for 1 mm. Hook cutted. <- PIC WARNING (164kb)
May be it is sometimes hard to remove bezel. You need to remove metal plate from bottom of the tray and find 4 hooks that fix bezel to the tray.
