    Hello. I need CF-28 network port assambly. I'm looking for the one with WIFI
    bump-out antenna. This would be my first choice. If none available, I will take the one with network and modem ports, again bump-out antenna.
    Need two.
    Also I'm in need of CF-28 PCMCIA cover/door in good condition (can be without hinges). Need one. Will buy or can trade for other parts. Have a lot of CF-28 and CF-M34 parts. Just let me know what you need. Regards, Voytek.

    I have lots of brand new doors all locations. I think I have one network-modem side cover, no bumpouts, they were really rare.

    You are asking the impossible
    I have only seen this rare cover a few times from a seller on ebay that
    specialists in really rare toughbook parts with pricing to reflect that

    If you are willing to spend over $100 I can email him and ask if he will set one aside when he comes across them

    Looked him up , and he is gone
    Sellers name was cybertools

    As I remember he was selling them for a bit over $100 complete kit ,not just the rare cover

    Look after yours, it is truly a rare item , even the cisco kit that uses the pull out antenna is not that common

    Thank you Cap. I will take the door. PM sent. Have regular lan/modem cover.
    What I also need; is set of rubber feet for CF-28. The triangle shaped.
    Thanks, Voytek.

    He is no longer a register Ebay user. I think the high cost of listing and final value fee plus paypal fee is the problem on maintaining to sell on Ebay. I even thinking about it. What was left is just enough for a cup of coffee. In most cases if I have an opportunity to sell outside ebay. I bite it right away and thats the only way to suvive. Also on craigslist. I have bit of luck from local buyer so far.
