HP ZBook 14u G5 Mobile Workstation

Hey all,

 

I would like to install a backlit keyboard in my HP zBook 14u G5. The current keyboard that is installed does not have the backlight feature on it, but since I am back at university now I could really benefit from having the backlighting for late night work sessions.

 

My question is, if I purchase the L15540-001 keyboard, which is the United States (English) with backlit option keyboard, can I simply take the old one out and swap it in? Or are there connectors that it requires that are not present from the factory on machines that were not optioned with the backlit keyboard?

 

Thanks in advance!
