Title: WTB - Command and Option keys from white HHKB set
Post by: TopreFan333 on Thu, 27 August 2015, 13:49:12: Using a Realforce key set, but on a Mac, and would like to replace the Windows keys (with bubble, ugh) and the Alt keys with the properly-marked Command and Option keys from an HHKB white set. FN too if you have it.

I know this is a long shot, but in case someone is parting out their white HHKB key caps, I'd be glad to take those 4 keys off your hands at a premium price. Thanks!

Post by: TopreFan333 on Sat, 29 August 2015, 11:14:12: I guess another way I might do this would be to bite the bullet and buy a white HHKB set and sell the keys I don't want...

The colors on HHKB keys are different than Realforce keys just FYI. I have seen light gray HHKB blank mods (individually & pairs) selling on EBay. If you could live with blanks it would be cheaper than a whole set.

The different color doesn't bother me as much as everything just being mislabelled. I'll keep the blanks in mind if worst comes to worst -- thanks.

Actually, oops, I think I emailed you instead. Better anyway -- the PM system here is no fun to use.
