    Hello. I have ASUS U31JG laptop without the Bluetooth option. There is AWBT235 Bluetooth module available on ebay and seller claims it's comaptible.
    The question is: can I install it by myself? I mean are there connectors on the board or I should check it out first to make sure. If yes, where should I look and is there any place I could find the disassembly guide for U31J series? Thanks.

    At the minimum I think you will need a cable to connect it to the motherboard.

    Unfortunately I don't think the disassembly guide has been posted for that model anywhere.

    The module on ebay comes with the cable. Regarding disassembly I understand that this is quite new model, but maybe someone could leak a service manual or something... :)
