    Hello!

    I'm hoping you can help, I'm looking for a replacement screen bezel/surround to fit my SZ61WN/C (mine is cracked in half at the bottom between the N and Y of Sony! N is lost in the abyss so I currently have a SO Y Laptop :D ).

    After a bit of digging on this site I have found the disassembly guides and nexttronics who will deliver what I need to me here in the UK (Woohoo!), my only issue is that I'm not sure which one I need to buy.

    I'm think its one on this page (below) under the "lcd133led" section as it is an led backlit screen with motion eye camera (on diagram as 1011).

    http://www.nexttronics.com/reference/sony/sz3/int-SZ72B-B.htm

    But I'm really only going on the picture and the fact that it says led in the title! :rolleyes:

    My model isn't listed as its a European version (the SZ61WN/C is an all black Premium Carbon model), is there an equivalent US model number that anyone knows of?

    Thanks! I'd really appreciate any help anyone can give!

    Mike

    If you use Ebay it is worth sending this seller an email. If they don't even list the parts that you want still email them to enquire. I did that for a part i needed and they got back to me and told me they had the part i needed in stock.

    If you do use nextronics i would be interested to know how long you had to wait for your item.
