HP dv2 pavillion

I have a HP dv2 pavillion, and i want to replace the motherboard. This is an attempt to refurbish this laptop.

 

1. Which is the most advanced motherboard that would still  be compatible with the Pavillion DV2 chassis/frame? 

Is it the DV7? 

Follow up question: 

2, Could I get a backlit keyboard for that motherboard? 

 

Follow up question:

3. The silvery protection thingees on the sides are broken, is it possible to get spare parts for that? 

 

PS

Yes, I'm aware this is not the BEST I can do, however it is the CHEAPEST thing to do, in my present low-budget situation. Spending 300 euros on a new laptop is not in the cards right now.
