Title: Replacement Filco-Style stabilizer?
Post by: gastro54 on Mon, 20 June 2011, 21:20:10

Hi,

I broke one of the stabilizers on the (+) key of the numpad of my Rosewill RK-9000.  It uses the same style stabilizers as Filco keyboards from what I can tell (two barbed prongs that snap the stabilizer in place with a snap-in holder for the metal bar).  Where is it possible to get replacements for these?

Thanks,
Alex

I'm curious myself, I posted a WTB in the Classifieds but nobody's responded yet. I'm after one of those white bits that holds one side of the wire.

Ah, I'm looking for the black part that the metal snaps in, myself.

WASD KB may be getting some in the future, I asked him to try.

I can't see why they wouldn't be able to, they already carry the wire and the inserts for the spacebar.  Gotta say that guy seems to be really trying to cater to keyboard geeks.
