Will a T60 lcd panel fit in an R51?

[blackpit]

Hello.

A friend has a Thinkpad R51 2888-WAW (15" XGA LCD) and he needs a new LCD panel. His original panel has:

Mfg Part # : 92P6670
FRU Part # : 92P6679

Will a 15" XGA panel from a Thinkpad T60 fit and work without any issues? I can't check for the FRU Part # for the T60 panel easily as I bought the LCD assembly separately and not as part of a whole laptop, so I don't have model/type numbers, nor a serial number to check the parts list. If I absolutely need the FRU part # for the T60 panel, I will disassemble it and I will update this post.

Looking forward to any helpful responses, thanks!

Kind regards,
Panagiotis

It will work just fine, you will have to re-use the original LCD cable and inverter from R51.

I believe he has those parts, so there should be no trouble I guess. Thank you for the super fast reply, I appreciate it.
