Retrofitting WIFI and Bluetooth on a mac mini

I got a 1.25 GHz PowerPC, model A1103 mac mini off e-bay and it didn't come with WIFI or Bluetooth. I browsed e-bay and there are some listings mentioning that the WIFI and Bluetooth board can be retrofitted to any mac mini. I popped off the case on the mini and I don't see where the WIFI and/or Bluetooth boards would attach to the main PCB. So, can I really add WIFI and Bluetooth if it didn't come from the factory?

Thanks

if this Mini was not built with wifi and bluetooth, there probably will be one more thing missing. it is small pcb board, called Mezzanine Board. you need to plug both these upgrades into connectors on this mezzanine board... also, wifi antenna will be handy. these are very precious, it took me a long time to find one. try here: http://www.welovemacs.com/apmacmi1sumn.h...

i apologise for posting this link, i have not found similar product in your list.
