    I have a VGN-S260
    You need to take the whole laptop apart to get to the wireless card.
    Flip the laptop over, and remove the 15 or so screws.
    The screen comes off, as does the palmrest.
    Than simply disconnect the wireless card, and install a new one.
    My S260 has an Intel 2200 wireless mini PCI wireless card in it
