    Finally.... success! What a pain to get the little connector connected. I ended up holding the notebook on its side and letting the connector end fall into the DVD drive slot, then manipulate it to over the pin connector. Next, and while also holding a flashlight balanced on my shoulder, I carefully used the long, thin metal letter opener to carefully push on the top and bottom plastic edges, being ever so careful to not pinch or cut the little wires.

    For those wishing to try this, on the actual connector the pin holes are not exactly in the middle. The connector installs with the pin holes closest to the bottom side of the notebook.

    Turned it on and BT was instantly recognized and the drivers installed.

    Oh, and be careful not to bend those little pins!

    Cheers,
    Dobermann
