Panasonic Viera G20 54in. W/ A Board From 50in?

[photoeye]

I need to replace an A Board on my Viera G20 54 inch Plasma and have been holding out for a decently priced part. A really good deal popped up in my area for the same set in the 50 inch model and I was thinking about buying it to harvest the part. The part numbers are very close and upon closer inspection the boards themselves look identical in every way. Does anyone know if the 50 inch board will work in the 54 inch television?

Thanks!

It should be fine, as long as they are both 1080p and both have same features (e.g. cannot use 3D board in 2D set.)

Can i install a D board from 42G15 to my 46G15, will it work? Board number is same for both.

Thanks! I may take a chance on this. Anyone else want to chime in?

I recently swapped a 55 inch tc-p55ut50 3d smart mainboard into a tc-p50u50 non 3d or smart tv. . This tv uses the same panel as its brother the tc-p50ut50, which is the same just a smaller version of the tc-p55ut50. The a board and ss boards were bad so I swapped in the 55 inch 3d mainboard and its ss board works now with 3d and smart features. Of course I had to modify the back for the added lan connector and made room inside the tv for the bluetooth dongle to interface with the glasses.
