the only thing hindering it is the size of the screen. if the size of the screen in one case is the same as the size in the other, i don't see a problem. |

Don't research by laptop model...research by screen model or part number. I recently replaced the screen on my 6 year old laptop by pulling it out, finding the exact part number (toshiba screen in my HP laptop)...which in turn found a list of laptops it can be used in.
I got a second hand screen on Ebay for $37 and change. New, this same model was going for around $200.00. |

What Chips said. I have replaced a few with my buddy at his shop and its all about the part numbers of the screen itself. Some screens have inverters that will only work with one model of laptop and if you try to use a different screen it just wont work and you will get no video at all. I would say if you have more than newb understanding of computers you might be able to take your laptop apart to get the screen number and do a little research to find a compatible match for it. But i have to stress that they are no fun taking apart with a S*** load of small screws to keep track of and the risk of breaking something or damaging your current screen.
If you find out the model number of your screen shoot me a PM and I can see if my buddy has some in stock as he has about a dozen Dell screens at his shop.
Oh yea if you can't get your laptop apart don't take it to a computer shop and ask them to take it apart for you so YOU can do the repairs on it yourself and that you just wanted it taken apart....beacuse we will give it to you in multiple pieces in a box and tell you to have fun putting it back together. |

By all means...make SURE you find a detailed repair manual online that details the removal and replacement. There were numerous steps that MUST be followed in a certain order...or you'll start breaking stuff.
For instance...there was a certain spot to start removing the bezel surrounding the screen...or you'll just snap it in pieces. These instructions should also include the removal of the inverter (something I replaced about a year before the screen). Mine had to have the keyboard removed as well to completely separate the lid from the main body. Certain screws are hidden...under rubber stops for instance. You must have detailed instructions. This is not something you can do without them.
Good points CC. |

Yeah, on the dell website theres a web manual they give to removing and replacing almost everything in the computer including the display. I looked up her service tag from the site and it did give me a part number but im not entirely sure if it is a dell part number or the actual screen manufacturers number (QUANTA DISPLAY INCORPORATED KD145). And no ebay has not yielded anything lower than 140. |

I was extreeeeeemly lucky to get the price I got. I couldn't believe it actually. Again...my my used and was advertised as "a few pixels" not perfect. Turns out I couldn't find anything wrong with it.
You'd probably be lucky in the $100.00 to $150.00 range...replacement screens are unfortunately not cheap. |
