MacBook Pro 2012 new Wi-Fi Card

[MacBook Pro 2012 User]

Hi.
I'm using a MacBook Pro 2012 Unibody.
A year ago I upgraded my MacBook Pro 2011 with 16GB of RAM, 1TB SSD and a MacBook Pro 2012 motherboard. But I did not replace the Wi-Fi card.
Now I'm wondering which Wi-Fi card I need to buy to be able to use AirDrop and Handoff.
Can I get a Wi-Fi card from a Retina model from 2013/2012?

Have a great day!

Anyone tried the cheaper kit on a 2013 mbp and if so which card did you squeeze in? Being uk based is quite attractive with no customs charges etc
