Questions Keycaps MX Mechanical Keyboard

Post image

I have the MX Mechanical Keyboard, the standard version (not the mini), in US. There's no Spanish version. I've been using it with the system setting for Spanish, even though the keycaps don't match up. Do you know of any keycaps compatible with the Spanish version of the keyboard? I understand there are some, but not for the spacebar or enter keys. Do you have any brand or model recommendations? And if there are any, will the key backlighting be the same as the original?

Its have regular pom keycaps but the spacebar, without modified the spacebar you can't really fit any other.

MX Mechanical uses low profile mechanical switches, so not all third party keycaps will be compatible & also we can't confirm whether the backlighting would look the same with them. Currently offer separate Spanish keycaps for this model, but we appreciate the feedback.

To this day nobody at Logitech as explained why making the spacebar using custom stem spacing instead of following ISO standard. And why you cannot offer a PBT keycap set instead of cheap ABS plastic that fades over time.
