    I just bought a HP Pavilion DV6 (dv6-3236nr) notebook and I thought it had a backlit keyboard...however upon opening up the box I see it does not. Looking in the pdf file from HP maintenance and service guide for the DV6 it shows there is a backlit keyboard available, part # 597630-001. Is this something I could purchase and switch out with my non-backlit keyboard?

    TIA!

    He's referring to the dv6-3xxx series. The modding thread is for the 6xxx series.
