    I got dell to send me a new back cover (Blue in color) and instead of the ccfl display i had im now useing the led lcd one. i used the metal backets that were on my ccfl display and they fit perfect on the led display. how ever when i put it back together the bezel cuts the top of the screen off and the bottom is too low. is there a bezel espically made just for the led display or do i need to get the correct metal brackets that hold the display into the cover??

    Yeah, it looks like there are two different bezels...

    CCFL:

    You can see how the top part on the CCFL bezel extends a bit further below the webcam port than the top part on the LED bezel.

    ya i chatted with dell and told them i needed the correct bezel. the one they sent me was ccfl bezel. dell is sending me the correct one. hopefully its the correct one. you thinkthey would of gotten it right the first time. anyways if they dont send me the right one ill just pay the $18 and buy one. i stressed to dell many times that i hadthe wrong bezel and even gave the part number for the correct bezel. i cant beleive they would send me the wrong bezel.

    also the bottom of the led bezel is a bit taller which is correct for the monitor.
