    Hey there,

    I bought a refurb'd 355 bluetooth module for my Dell Vostro 1400.

    People say it's easy as pie to install, but I can't find the wire that is suppose to attach to it.

    Any ideas?

    I really wish tech support for Dell had schematics for these things, then I could at least look to see if the wire exists.

    The wire isn't always there. It can be bought separately.

    Where does it plug in? I don't see anywhere it can...
    I don't see Dell telling me on that link either, I'll look around online for something of the sort, but Bluetooth and Vostro sure do clutter the search engines for things I'm not looking for.

    Looked inside as deep as you can go, can't find a thing.

    Oh well, maybe it was made without it, I'll talk to my good gold rep friend on Monday about it.
