    If you don't mind could you go back and edit your post like resize your picture, it makes it very hard to read this thread and it's against forum rules too. Thanks :D

    That is the access panel on a CF-28 where the blue antenna wire for a CDPD antenna gets routed, and where one gains access to the bottom of the motherboard to install the "Texas board" inverter PCB for EL-backlit keyboard upgrade. Think of it as a "Jeffries tube" in your ToughBook.

    This membrane is the watertight seal; it is protected/held in place by an aluminum plate with 2 screws in it, which Springfield has graciously offered to provide for you if needed.

    If you need to get under it, heat the metal around the edges carefully with a hair dryer or heat gun to soften the adhesive; it can get pretty easy to rip with age. Then pry up a corner of the membrane with a thin bladed knife and work your way around.

    Don't think it's getting resized anytime soon.

    Oops, just realized there were two pages to this. Didn't mean to post my first sentence.
