T500: add bluetooth

[takedown]

I have a thinkpad t500 2081CTO, of course, without bluetooth.

Last month I bought a usb bluetooth dongle, but last week I started thinking if it's posible buy the original bluetooth module of lenovo, and add it, like from factory.

Anybody have some ideas about this?

takedown,

This question has come up before in other threads.  Basically, the bluetooth card for the T500 is located behind the LCD bezel.  Any parts concerning the LCD are not replaceable by customers.

So if you order your system without bluetooth, the best route is a peripheral solution (like you already have).  Having a licensed servicer install this part would be expensive.
