Product: HP 15-da0049nr

Hello there,
I have a HP 15-da0049nr. It does NOT have a backlit keyboard. I was wondering if it compatible for one. I plan to replace this keyboard with a Backlit keyboard. Please let me know if this is possible and if there is an offical OEM backlit keyboard that I can use or If I will have to get an aftermarket one. - Thanks for Reading

It is a very hard choice:

 

  1. Firstly NO backlit part alone, you have to buy a whole top (if available) which has SAME color with your machine.
  2. Secondary, system board on your machine may NOT have connectors for keyboard lights that means you may have to buy new system board an that is very expensive. You have to check this out first.

Regards.
