Replaces the display flex cable in a backlit M5126 or an M5120 fitted with Apple's backlight upgrade.

JCM showed eight M5126 cables and fourteen M5120 backlight-upgrade cables in stock on 2026-07-24. The two variants are not interchangeable, and neither listing claims support for an unmodified non-backlit M5120.
