Inspiron 13 Bluetooth and Remote Control Upgrade

02 Sep 2008 05:54PM

Hello - I just purchased an Inspiron 13 from BestBuy this past weekend however I realized that it lacks 2 things I was looking for:

  • Bluetooth
  • Remote Control

I was curious if anyone can help me track down the Bluetooth adapter model number for the Inspiron 13 then I can buy it and install it myself (since in the past this has been easy with Dell machines)?  In addition, does anyone know if the remote control used on the Inspirons / Vostros (Part Number:  MR425) will work with the Inspiron 13?

Thank you very much in advance for your help!

Ok I was just informed I can purchase the Dell Wireless 355 Bluetooth Module (Part Number:  430-2366) and install it.

 

Bluetooth Module:  http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/products/Wireless_WiFi/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku=430-2366#Overview

Installation Instructions:  http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins1318/en/sm/btooth.htm

 

(It looks to be a painful installation on this model - you need to remove the Center Control Panel and Keyboard - ayeeeeee!). 

 

Anyone have insight on the remote control from above?
