Installing Bluetooth

I have an xps gen 2 and a friend of mine has an i6000. Neither of us went ahead and ordered the bluetooth when we ordered and now regret that decision. Instructions on ordering and installing the bluetooth capability is needed. I'm not a complete gimp when it comes to computers but not as good as many of you! So any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks

I tried getting mine from Dell, no dice for 2 weeks. Ordered off ebay for not much more when you include Dell shipping and taxes and it was here in 2 days.

Super simple install, open up the bluetooth panel at bottom of notebook, plug in module, pop it in place, reinstall panel. Illustrations on Dell's website.

If you do a search on ebay or dell site you should be able to find it. If i am not mistaken, it's the truemobile 350? something like that.

Ya that's it and they should say in the item description which notebooks it's compatible with.
