    I have a dell E1705 and the screen is very hard to see. It's darker in the middle and just a little brighter on the sides - it's very difficult to see and use. If I get a replacement screen do they come with a backlight or is a screen and backlight two different parts that I would need to order each?

    Thank you,

    The backlight is built into the LCD assembly. If you buy an entire display assembly or even just the LCD assembly, you will get a new backlight as well.
