Default Re: Backlight changing on Acer Travelmate 4150

Congratulations.

When you replace a backlight, save the WIRES from the old backlight. If
necessary splice them for length or to get the right connector.

NOTE: Most CCFL backlight lamps use (require? - not sure) SILVER wire,
which is relatively expensive and hard to get (although I think that
Mouser and Digikey in the US do sell it). another reason for keeping
the old wire.
