Hi everyone,
This is my first post, so I'm sorry in advance if I do something wrong.
I bought a notebook with a normal keyboard (model 15 ay110-nl) and I would like to know if i can replace the stock keyboard with a backlit one.
Thank you.
P.S. Sorry for the bad english

Did you know you also need a new motherboard (if available) which supports a baklit keyboard ? Backlit keyboard needs ZIF connector to plug its lights.
Motherboard on your machine does to have ZIF connector.
