What does a T-series ultraport interposer look like?

[nynexman4464]

I recently bought a used ultraport camera off ebay for my T23. When I got it it didn't fit. A little googling brought me here. It seems that I'm missing the ultraport interposer. Does anybody have a picture of one anywhere? It isn't this, is it? http://www.flickr.com/photos/8602206@N02/2218916337/
I think that's just a cover (sorry for the lousy pic, it's hard to take a picture of), but it does look like the one part is removable.

Welcome to thinkpads.com!

I think I have a T23 with one of those interposer / frame / bracket doohicky still attached but it's not with me. From memory, it's a piece that screws down into the connector board inside the lid and it doesn't look like what you have pictured. If nobody else can post a link to a picture, when I get home I'll look for that system.

In the Hardware Maintenance Manual (HMM), they show a thing called a ultraport adapter.
It is in the section "Removing and replacing a FRU", "2040 LCD panel"

Well, I looked through the stable and couldn't find that system. Now I can't figure out if I sold that system with the bracket still attached (doubtful), if my daughter has it (possible) or I took it off and stashed it somewhere (would be like me to do that). In any event, the reference that SMA provided does seem to indicate that's what you have.

Hmm, OK, it looks similar, but the thing I have has nowhere where a screw could go, and nothing on the bottom, so I'm pretty sure it's just a cover. I wouldn't be surprised if they were made from the same parts.

Now that I can describe it I can at least ask if the guy still has it -- but if he didn't sent it, I'm guessing he doesn't. Any ideas where I might get one?
