    Hi, im a long time reader on here but just recently joined in the hopes that somebody out there might have a pcmcia port cover with screws etc for my cf 18, ive taken measurements and im pretty sure a cf 18 hdd cover would also fit possibly.
    if anyone has one please let me know as i will most definately buy it from you provided that its not at a silly high price.
    i have paypal and you can check my feedbacks ont the bay with the same username that i have on this forum.
    i dont mind importing to the uk if thats my only option, also if ayeone has other rubber port covers going spare i might want to snap some of those up as well as mine are starting to wear out (usb, dc covers etc)

    please pm me as thats the quickest way i can reply.
    cheers.
    MG

    We can not pm you or either way as you are a newbie. You must have at least 15 post before you do that. Would you mind posting your contact if it doesn't bother you so that anybody can send you a message. Thank you.

    ah sory i didnt realise that i dont have pm permissions as a newbie,
    would definately like to get my system sealed up with the port cover!
    also, i just noticed that other cf 18 toughbooks with wifi have a control panel next to the power switch, mine has wifi stock but with no control panel, was it something that wasnt park of the Mk.2 lineup?
    cheers, i really hope someone can sort me out with a replacement cover,thanks.

    That panel is for wwan, the wi-fi uses a software based switch to turn off
