    Dear All,
    I have a E6220 and was wondering if I can replace my normal keyboard with one with backlit?

    Any experience?

    Not hard at all, but not the easiest as the palm rest has to come off. The larger models usually only need a trim piece to be popped off, instead of the whole palm rest. Shouldn't take more than 10 minutes. Look at the Dell manual.

    I have an extra new backlit keyboard. I'll sell it if you don't already have one.
