Replacement Keyboard for Dell Latitude 5500 5501 5510 5511, Precision 3540 3541 3550 3551 Series Laptop with Backlit with Pointer US Layout P/N: 0MMH7V NSK-EX0BC PK132FA1B00

I wore right through a key on my original keyboard. Too much down arrow during game play... This keyboard is a perfect fit and all of the keys work smoothly and are perfectly centered in the keyboard bezel - so no rubbing. I've been using it for about 5 months now and it still looks and works like new - even though I've continued to regularly play that game where I wore through my old keyboard. Installation in Latitude 5511 is not for the faint of heart. Lots of little screws to remove to gain access. Tedious but achievable.

Perfect OEM replacement. Maybe 1 hour to replace. I'm an IT pro, with hardware integration experience. I had a good work laptop keyboard that got gummed up, but didn't want to send it back to get an unknown replacement (backups, lose data, have to submit work requests to get prior-installed custom applications re-installed.....). I got this, replaced it myself, and was functional again. Caution: The replacement process only needs a screwdriver, but it is a VERY LONG process. There is a video online demonstrating - I never would have been able to complete this on my own without detailed instructions. This IS NOT a PLUG and PLAY replacement (old Dells had 4 screws on the front to replace the keyboard - the Latitude I have now had to be completely disassembled from the rear to access the keyboard - case, battery, disk, heatsink, wifi, NIC, touchpad, video, mainboard.... everything.... somewhere near 60 screws of 4 different sizes. If you don't have experience with this kind of disassembly/assembly, I would suggest finding someone more experience to do it.

Nice item and fit perfectly on the Dell Latitude 5511, Which is not that easy of a job. There must be around 60 screws total to deal with. But again, the keyboard fit perfectly and works great.

These appear to be factory seconds. Looks legit but there are multiple quality stickers on the back, some covering needed screw holes so they need to be removed before installation. Metal base of the keyboard was bent but box was undamaged. The slight cost saving over Dell part isn't worth the wasted time to get this ready to install.

Very easy replacement on a Latitude 551 , only took me about 20 minutes to remove the old, faulty keyboard using just a small screw driver.

Perfect fit for a Dell Precision 3541.

Backlit. looks and functions like original equipment. Replacement in this laptop is another story. The whole laptop has to be disassembled to get to the keyboard so be ready for that. This keyboard is great.
