    I have the sony vaio fw series from a little over a year ago, model VGN-fW390. backlit keyboard option was not available at this time. i see they offer it now. is it possible to put a backlit keyboard from the newer model into this laptop? i am thinking not, because it wouldn't have the connections. let me know.
