    Are the G51 and G50VT exactly the same size?

    I'm wondering this because I want to attempt a G51 and G50VT faceplate swap. Is this doable?

    I don't see why it can't be done. The G50 and G51 uses the same chassis.

    should be fine. The current reseller G51Vx faceplate was actually from the G50Vt (in some countries)
