    Hopefully I can get some experienced advice on this... I am looking to swap out the hd+ screen that is on my 510 with a fhd screen I want to order on ebay. Has anyone completed this task successfully? Will it work?

    I believe someone over on TPF swapped in the FHD on the T510. I suspect if the eBay seller says it'll work, it probably, but won't be as good as the Lenovo part.

    It will work. I did this twice. I also changed the screen of a HP Elitebook with the W510 screen (I put an FHD screen in the W510 and used the W510 screen in the Elitebook because I liked the Thinkpad screen better (LG) than the Elitebook screen (Samsung))

    Just make shure you get an LG, AUO or Samsung screen, they'll fit perfect.

    Where did you get your screens?
