Can a CCFL high-resolution LCD panel from model A1229 fit into A1261?
I have a 17" Macbook Pro from early 2008, model A1261, with a CCFL 1680x1050 screen. I know that replacing a CCFL panel with a LED one would require also replacing the logic board and the whole display assembly, so the question is whether a hi-res CCFL screen from an older model would fit.
I suspect there might be a difference in connectors given that older Macbook pros were shipped with ATI graphics and not NVidia. Is there anyone who has seen both panels and could tell for sure they are (or are not) interchangeable?
Is this a good question?

Yaroslav Fedevych, any chance you can provide the serial or manufacturer number of at least one LCD panel? that way I could check the data sheet and try to check compatibility of the connectors etc.?
