Inspiron 9300 WUXGA screen compatible with 6860?

As the title says, I was wondering if it would be possible to swap the two LCDs from my Inspiron 9300 and 6860. I read somewhere on the forums that they might be compatible, but I'm not sure how to confirm if they are. Would save me a little money and get me a nice screen.

Any information is appreciated. Thanks.

 

yep it will work but you will have to remove the bracket from the top and the inverter from the bottom which can be a bit tricky cause there sorta riveted on there but with a little patience and if you have a dremel that will help some people pried theres off but its pretty delicate so you have to handle it with extra care.

 

How about the other way around? I would rather buy a new screen for my 6860 and use this one in my Inspiron 9200. My dell has 32 vertical lines and is washed out but it would function as a good backup machine for the wife if I downgraded it to a 1440 x 900.

 

i didnt have any lucky getting the 1440 screen working in my friends 1705/9400 even when i plugged the screen into his inverter cause the brightness controls didnt work proper nor did i get any screen to show up till it booted fully into windows and even then i couldnt get the brightness to work as it should . now the 9200 will have a different inverter so it may very well work and seeing as you have nothing to lose cause the other screen on there is fubar if it were me i would give it a shot .
