DCS (from SP) has lower profile than Filco's original key caps. Maybe WASD has same profile as Filco.

This is the case.  Be careful going to WASD.  You might end up with a few sets of caps and a keyboard to boot.

I'm actually trying to find a DCS because im replacing the original caps on my filco with double shots from a cherry board. I already got all the other keys that are incompatible, i just need the caps lock key because the one from the cherry boards has the stem in a different place so it wont fit on the filco. I emailed Mellisa at SP but she told me she didn't have blank ones in stock...then tried to make me pay $100 so i can get a blank cap manufactured.

If you cant find a key I may be able to mod your current one for you.

Could you take a pic with a regular caps lock aligned right below it?

yes I could mod that but I would have to remove the original stem to make it work.
