keyboard cover, display output (tv)

i have a compaq presario cq50 laptop, i saw in another post that there was al ink to order specific model keyboard covers.

they dont have my model, but have a cq45 version.
it looks exactly like my keyboard, should i take the risk and buy it?
if not heres the link and someone see if it would fit perfectly, or if not someone supply me with a nice cover,(btw most keys are curved, and id like it to be a nice flimsy material)
link to cq45 cover: http://www.kbprotector.com/product.asp?aid=12&id=623

and secondly i need a a tv cable, id like it to be less than 20$ or if i could buy one from an hp site? im not sure if i even could use one, so idk

 

I believe the CQ45 and CQ50 use the same keyboard. You can easily tell by placing a ruler next to your keyboard, if it aligns the same as the one in the picture, then it should be the same. Many models share the same keyboard (even between different screen sizes) within a brand, and the cover seller may not know about a few models. For example, all three Lenovo Y310(13.3), Y410(14.1), and Y510(15.4) share the exact same keyboard and he didn't know about it, I had to tell the seller and he added the Y310 to his database. In fact, the Y series also shares the same keyboard with other Lenovo series.

 

k thanks, ill see if my ruler aligns one side, and then order it, also is that a legit place to buy one?

 

Yes, the same seller has an eBay store as well, the price is cheaper on eBay and sometimes he will post some promotions for buying more than one.

yeah he doesnt have the one i need on ebay,
i just noticed i need to register to buy for 1.4$ im not up for that, anyone have different sites for a exact fit keyboard cover?

 

Try contacting him through eBay first, because on his listings, it's written "We have any model you want just fell free to ask, we will response any questions within 24 hours".

 

k thanks i hope he doesnt make me register haha

 

lol... nah, I bought mine through eBay too, the price on his site can get you like 2 of them from his eBay store, maybe this is why sometimes he offered buy one and second one half price on his site.

EDIT: By the way, what do you mean by register? For sure you will need an eBay account though.

 

when i clicked order, and then checkout it says :

Register: YES (only US$1.4)
SHIP TO: Choose the destination [USA & Canada Australia / New Zealand & Asia Countries Hong Kong & Macao Taiwan Countries other than the above listed ]

in a form, and there are more tihngs to the form after the first two.

 

I don't remember if I paid for registered or not, since I got mine like 6 months ago, but I guess you may as well take it for the tracking number if it's only $1.40 extra.
