    Hey guys, so this Dell guy came over and replaced my SXPS 13's monitor. All was well until I opened up the bottom case to apply thermal paste (cus the guy took off the heat sink and screwed it back up without reapplying thermal paste). What I found was three lose wires...THREE LOSE WIRES!!! The three wires belong to the monitor, and I need help in putting them back to where they belong. Can someone post a picture of the bottom of their laptop without the cover? I want to figure out where the wires belong.
    Picture of what I am talking about:

    edit: Ok, those were not lose wires. Had me scared! Anyways, I tucked them away. :D
