Hi all,
I've recently bought the ducky miya keyboard but I don't like the teal esc, space bar and enter key colours, where can i go and get replacements that matches the rest of the keycaps?
if not, does anyone know the size of caps ? they seem smaller than my other ones.
btw: I'm from the uk
Thanks in advance

To get completely matching keycaps (profile and font) you'll need to get some Ducky ones and it looks like the Miya Pro has dye sub caps so you'll probably want to match that too. If it's this one (http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=5827) the sizes are standard.
Is it ANSI (wide enter as linked above) or ISO (tall enter)? A quick search has failed to find any caps of either in stock in the UK but if you want ANSI you can look in the US.

Thanks for the reply @suicidal_orange.
I tried to fit one from my old filco, but they seem taller, see this picture (https://imgur.com/Xby7Wbb).
The one in your image is the my one. it's the ISO.
So what do I need to search on, PBT ISO cherry keycaps? why are the ones on the ducky smaller?
it's annoying as I just want ESC, space bar and ENTER keys :(

I might have to go for the full keys, maybe something like this (https://www.overclockers.co.uk/glorious-pc-gaming-race-gpbt-keycaps-115-pbt-keycaps-iso-uk-layout-black-ash-kb-037-gr.html?_gl=1*1md6xwb*_up*MQ..&gclid=CjwKCAjw3cSSBhBGEiwAVII0Z2kibmabFjxFqbE4nw1CxFr_gDT1lSLejXAVOP1Fh3FCqXTFfl3-rRoC4CgQAvD_BwE)?

in the end the only way you'll end up with a matching profile/height is with a full ISO replacement set of caps in Cherry or OEM Profile.
