What WLAN module? NOTEBOOK Clevo D410S

Hello everyone. I've got a dilemma which drives me mad, so any help would be grateful. 

 

The problem is that I  have an old Notebook Clevo D410S which is working perfectly fine. But it lacks wifi. It has everything it needs for a wifi card (connection on the motherboard 5pin on the upper right, space inside the case, antenna, even wifi switch on the front) but the card itself as you can see in the picture. Sooo.. long story short: I've spend last couple of days looking everywhere on the internet but couldn't find what card wlan card has to go in there. All of them seems to be mini pcie, sadly I need something with 5pin connector (usb??).  Thanks in advance. 

 

 

p.s. there is link for service manual. In which there is a step by step description how to replace WLAN card. But sadly there are not any notes about the type must be used.  http://tim.id.au/laptops/noname/clevo%20d400s%20d410s.pdf

I would look for a mini pcie to 5-pin adapter and use an Intel 5300 mini half size card. It has a 3x3 antenna array, up to 450mbps, you can add the additional antenna and lay it out under the keyboard. You can get a card for less than $10 and antenna for $1-$2. mini pcie to 5-pin will be your bottle neck. Good Luck.
