    Hi. I've got a C1S laptop which came with no bluetooth, but it was an option on the C1Z (and even has the light for it, just never turns on obviously).

    I just opened up the laptop to try find where to put the bluetooth module btu can't realy see anywhere obvious.

    Does anyone know where the bluetooth goes on these laptops?? Also, do most vaio's use the same bluetooth module or are they all different?

    The c1s and c1z should use the same bluetooth module. I have a sony SRX99P that did not have bluetooth option, but the SRX7 from Japan did. I found one for parts and took out the bluetooth module and was able to see where it should connect and low and behold, the mobo had the spot for it. I then d/led the driver and was able to get it working. The connection is not obvious at all though, need to see where it is connected on the other model if someone else has one.
