    Hi all! I'll try to keep the post as short and simple as possible.

    I have a Toshiba L50-B laptop that has a TN panel made by Samsung model LTN156AT35-T01 and I want to replace it with an IPS panel. The only one I found on panelook "apparently" compatible is made by LG model LP156WHA-SLA2. They match in many aspects, but - as suggested - I wanted to check the connector pin-outs of both to compare, unfortunately I can only find the PDF of the LG, but not of my original installed panel.

    Can someone experienced with displays help me out? Are these two swappable? I want to clearly mention that I'm only interested if they are electrically compatible, because I know that mounting wise, there are some mods that need to be done.
