Thinkpad T500 Screen Hole Covers?

Guest

Hi, I was wondering where to purchase the square screw hole covers for the screens bezel on a thinkpad t500.

You could probably get a box cutter and cut any type of rubber you have (scissors work too), this could include old phone cases, or old thick cables. You can then use hot glue or other adhesive to stick it on. For extra flair you can get some cheap spray paint.

It’s the kind of thing that isn’t sold separately and likely hasn’t been made since the machine has.   Generally though those things are sheer plastic and held on with double sided tape.  Such things can be fabricated at home.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

Shame, but it makes sense. Thanks for the info!
