    I just bought 2 CF-19s for projects I am working on. Both have the label fronts coming off of them... The buttons behind them work fine it seems... But the plastic front is peeling off. I don't really want to pay Heartland $25 to ship me out a $2 part.... Anyone have 2 of these?

    Rick,

    Here you go...It's a little cheaper than Heartlands..

    Panasonic Toughbook CF 18 Button Bar Cover Brand New | eBay

    Someone recently had them for $12.95...I can't find them now..Probably from China...Had an oddball name :confused:

    Someone:hi2: recently sent me a CF18 for parts. I'll check out the cover and see if I can get it off without damage.

    I had to repair mine also......I scored a mk2 base assembly with motherboard for $40 shipped:thumbsup:...I couldn't pass it up and the button cover is perfect. :D.

    Not sure but I think the 19 is a little different than the 18. I know that the 19 is on the left side and the 18 is on the right side but at $19.99 each from "zig" it would be cheaper to get it from Heartland. I have a 18 and 19 to compare them but I am at the cottage now and will not be home until Monday. ...I might even have one in stock. Will let you know Monday Rick.

    If there is a difference, I can not see one. They look identical to me.

    Shawn... LOL... Sorry... Don't know why I didn't see that!

    EDIT: I found the $12.95 one... It looks home printed!

    Double Edit: Jesus I feel like I just got my *** handed to me paying $39.90 for two pieces of ..02 cent plastic... But I'll factor it all in....

    I was just checking a few of my old invoices back in March 2012 and I bought 2 of them back then and they were $9.84 each so I bet they are a lot more now the way they have been raising there prices so getting them where you did was cheaper I guess...still a lot for a sticker.

    Rick! If you also need the pcb board with the sticker. CF-19MK1 & MK2 are the same but for MK3, its different. The difference is the connector inside.
