    Hi guys,

    As long as they use the same connector there should not be any problems. You may send an e-mail to the seller to get the description/picture of the connector.

    i don't see why not but yeah ask the seller to send pics of connector... also what brand is the LCD for? That's very important.. Asus uses same LCD screen as Clevo for their G73 but the one for clevo can't fit in the asus due to differrent connectors i think.
