    Thanks for the photos.
    Well if it works but the only problem you have is keeping the flex cable inside, than you can probably use some electrical tape to secure it in place.

    This sub-forum would be fit for your machine since it's the pre Dell model and maybe somebody else that had the issue came up with a better idea than mine :eek:
