you dont have a module, you also dont have the needed antenna.... in other words it is likely going to be rather hard for you to install it in your machine.

this model has an option for internal blue tooth, so it's probably possible to add one, but it may not be practical to do so.

It all depends on where the module goes. Also, if it's on the motherboard, adding one yourself will likely void your warranty.

were I in your shoes I'd call Toshiba and ask how much it'd cost to have them add one for you, and if it's a user serviceable part. Then you can decide if it's something that's worth tackling yourself.
