Good video. HP 450 and 455 G9 have the same layout too, moreover they have weak keys that broke often (I had 2 laptops 455 G9 with broken keys in few time) so you need to disassemble the entire notebook to change the keyboard. And it costs a lot because the keyboard is integrated into the panel and they sell the entire panel at high price (more than 100$), plus the work. Very bad from HP, bad decision and bad quality on G8 and G9...
Can you show how to just remove the top of the keys with the numbers or letters without opening the laptop? My laptop has an azerty keyboard instead of a qwerty keyboard so some of the letters are in the wrong place so I would like to swap them to their 'correct' positions and maybe totally change the number keys with a different laptop as the 2nd function written on the number keys are almost all wrong. My laptop is 455 G8
@starkincbprrecords9073 Nope. You have to disassemble the whole laptop, unrivet the plastic rivets with hot air, take out the actual keyboard. Put in the new one, rivet it with soldering iron. Then assemble the laptop back. And I repeat the video is not the keyboard replacement, it is the panel change.
@starkincbprrecords9073 "better" in what sense? spending $50 for the panel instead of $20 for the actual keyboard? I see your point, but that's not how real repair goes.

Thank you for detailed instructions!
By the way, I couldn't find ""How to Replace Keyboard" instructions on official HP video.
Danke! Muchas Gracias! 😊
Muchas gracias a ti 😍

same problem here. 455 G9 with 2 broken keys. Wanted to replace the keyboard, saw this video, gave up...
Does anyone know where I can kindly find a video for replacing the keyboard with and without cover? Thanks in advance, Alessio from Rome
Excellent content and can't thank you enough for this video...
On my HP probook 450 G4, can I replace the regular keyboard with a light one? It does not have a keyboard with light by default.
many thanks
thank you
Hello, Where can I find that HP Probook 450 G8 palmrest with keyboard? I have looked and I can't seem to find it.
I am in Ghana, where can I get one for replacement. Can a faulty keyboard cause my laptop to power on and off when the lid is opened?
Good 👍
Hey, is this a good laptop to buy for business and study?

Did you find the instructions?
You didn't replace the fingerprint?
Hello, I need a keyboard for HP Probook 640 G8 (layout CH-FR (Sswitzerland)) Do you know where I can find it ? Thank you, nice video
Try Amazon.
Where can I get the replacement keyboard
Did you try looking on Amazon? I was surprised to find my keyboard there, and at a resonable price.
That's not replacing a keyboard. That's replacing the whole front panel.

@starkincbprrecords9073 up to you man. but that's not how the proper repair is done I repeat.
