I could have sworn I watched a YouTube video tutorial of this mod, but now I cannot find it. Have a backlit keyboard and a trackpad on the way right now. The keyboard seems super easy, but I know the trackpad will be a little trickier.
Does anyone have a link to a how-to on this?
I am loving this model so far.

I think so. I was thrown off by the lack of a "P" when I searched. Thank you!RealBlackStuff wrote: ↑Mon Apr 23, 2018 8:21 amThis what you're looking for? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOj2W6rEWRo

Re: T440p Trackpad Mod
I never actually found a "perfect" how to, but watching what I did see helped. For anyone who is getting stuck w/ palmrest/bezel removal, here is where I got hung up:
- There is a screw under the DVD drive (once screws are removed, drive just slides out)
- There are three screws under the battery that need to be removed
Once I figured this out, it was a breeze. New backlit keyboard and trackpad work brilliantly. As an added bonus, I know no one else's grubby mitts have been typing or mousing on these surfaces.
I am very happy w/ the T440p and there's something so satisfying about being able to work on a machine like this.
