Lenovo ThinkPad T490 Palmrest with Touchpad (C Panel) Replacement – Rs. 6,399
If your ThinkPad T490 has a worn-out palmrest, cracked corners, or a touchpad that no longer clicks properly, replacing just the C panel is the smartest fix. This OEM-fit palmrest assembly in matte black soft-touch brings back the laptop's original look and feel without spending on a full chassis swap. At Rs. 6,399, it's a fraction of the cost of a new laptop and often cheaper than generic replacements that don't fit right. Whether you're in Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar, or Sialkot, you can order this part and get it delivered nationwide via TCS or Leopards – with same-day delivery in Lahore.
Lenovo ThinkPad T490 Palmrest with Touchpad (C Panel) replacement
The Lenovo ThinkPad T490 palmrest with touchpad (c panel) is the keyboard deck and palmrest with integrated touchpad in matte black soft-touch, a direct OEM-fit replacement for ThinkPad T490 and T495, T490s laptops from around 2019.

Why this palmrest is the part you need
Every day, we help customers who've been told their whole chassis needs replacing – but 9 times out of 10, it's just the palmrest that's damaged. Spilled coffee, cracked corners from a drop, or the soft-touch coating wearing off are all fixed by swapping the C panel. This part is bench-tested before listing; we check every screw hole, every clip, and the touchpad response. You get a part that's structurally sound and ready to install. If you're unsure about fitment, just WhatsApp 0314 4000131 with a photo of your existing palmrest – Sayam will confirm compatibility in minutes.
What this panel is and what it does
This is the keyboard deck and palmrest with integrated touchpad in matte black soft-touch for the Lenovo ThinkPad T490. As the laptop's the keyboard deck and palmrest hosting the touchpad, it carries cosmetic wear over years of use — scratches, dings, faded paint, cracked corners. A fresh panel restores the laptop's look and structural integrity without needing a full chassis replacement. Every panel we list has been pulled from a donor machine, cleaned, and inspected under bright light for cracks, dents, and stress fractures.
