Hi guys, i know this may have been asked before but I can't find it through the search function and I am curious. Where can I get blank black PBT keycap set that fit a Tenkeyless Filco from? Bearing in mind I live in the UK, I have scoured google and haven't found anything.

EDIT: Most preferably within eu as had horrible experiences posting from us to uk.
EDIT2: My keyboard is ANSI :)

Thanks!

If you want PBT ISO, there is only one source that I have ever found, the G80-3000LSCXX-0.

How do you feel about getting them from China? The thick Cherry profile ones are probably the best around, http://deskthority.net/marketplace-f11/ ... t3142.html. If you don't like those, ask them as they have offered in classic white/beige before as well. Not sure if they do the thick in black yet, but dyeing them black could be an option.

It is the only board EVER to be made, with ISO PBT caps and subtle or no legends. (OP asked for blanks.) It comes in black or white.

ah ok, when you said XX you meant XX :) thought as a variable for the country code (EU, DE, ...)

sadly only available from chinese retailers even though it's made in germany :roll:

taobao: http://bit.ly/OkcD40
cheapest for 800 yuan which is ~100 euros. yikes.
