DV6t-7200 keyboard compatibility and replacement

[mal0n3m]

My laptop is DV6t-7200(beats version 15") with product number:B6B49AV. I want to replace the keyboard to backlit. I'm not sure if the replacement item I found online is compatible.

My current keyboard model: 697454-001

This is the replacement item description:

Compatible with models of HP Pavilion dv6-7000 dv6-7100 DV6-7200, DV6t-7000, DV6z-7000 Series series laptop
Compatible part number:697455-001 NSK-CKBBW 01

How do I check the compatibility and know if it is the right item? please help.

I'm confused, can you please clarify something for me?

So the part compatibility is 698951-001. The keyboard replacement has this code 697455-001. So does this mean 697455-001 is compatible with 698951-001 and my current laptop's keyboard is 697454-001? I hope this makes sense. Please advise. Thank you.
