E6410 backlit keyboard question

Dear members

I have a Dell Latitude E6410 laptop with a non-backlit keyboard.

I have thought to install a backlit keyboard but it is quite expensive. 

I did see one going cheap but it had a french keyboard layout ie AZERTY rather than QWERTY . A number of keys are in different places.

I understand one could change the keyboard layout in Windows to the QWERTY but  I would like to ask a different question please.

Would I be able to remove  keys from the non-backlit keyboard and put them onto the backlit keyboard.

Also: would I be able to "swap round" the keys on the backlit keyboard.

What I would essentially be trying to do is make the "french" backlit keyboard into an "english" backlit keyboard.

If anyone could advise on this please it would be much appreciated

Thanks Ian

I wish it could be that easy but to answer your question, no.  I'd suggest purchasing a backlit keyboard from either Ebay, Amazone or PartsPeople. The price usually range from $15.00 - $30.00. Please click on link below:
