    That's for the old M17 R1 the jack of the M17x R1/R2 look nothing like that.
    That guy sells a LCD assembly and says it's for the R1 but it's for the older model.

    Thanks. Is the r1/r2 jack sodered directly to the mobo or is it similar to the the one in the ad?

    It's not soldered to the MoBo.
