WiFi or Bluetooth Clips

#1 Post by Bruce Guttman » Wed Jan 06, 2010 7:31 am

Is there a source for the clips that attach the antenna wires to the WiFi or Bluetooth cards? I have a T43 display and the bluetooth wire has no clip on it. I did a search and didn't find anything.

Parallel question: Do I need a special tool to install it or can I use a regular crimper?

Note: this probably applies to other Thinkpads as well; if you want to move this topic feel free.

My guess is that it would be difficult to get a satisfactory fix. It is a coax shielded cable and I'm sure it is machine made. I can do RG-6 cable and doing it by hand requires a few tools and relies on the fact that the cable is fairly stiff. I suggest replacing the whole antenna.
