The PANIC and !@#$% keycaps are cherry mx compatible so they will fit. The other ones dont fit a cherry mx switch but there is thread here on GH that showed how you can modify it so it can fit a cherry mx switch.

Yup, it will fit perfectly albeit a little taller than other keys on the same row.

Also here's the link to one of ripster's many threads (http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:13999) on how to make it fit.

I have a set of red esc keys from elitekeyboards that I don't use but I dunno if you'd be interested in them since they aren't double shots.
