Title: [WTB] Chicony Cherry MX Keycaps/ MX L shaped enter keys
Post by: tgujay on Sun, 26 August 2012, 20:14:51: I would like some MX keycaps that will fit on a Chicony 5181, preferably L shaped enter key as I can't seem to find any replacements of those that are MX compatible.

But a normal ansi enter fits just fine too, just won't have the tab where the \| should belong. That is actually how I rock on my Chicony 5161, just used a regular ansi Cherry doubleshot.

Post by: Findecanor on Sun, 26 August 2012, 21:41:05: Chicony 5181 has Alps-compatible key caps ... You mean Chicony 5191?

I have a set of new double-shot beige/grey key caps, with a "big-ass" backwards L-shaped Enter key, etc. that I think could once have been made by Chicony, but it is a bit special. It has a small left Shift like ISO boards, and a blank key next to it. The Enter key might be a bit unusual, too. I don't have time to check it today, will have to get back tomorrow.

Nope, it says 5181 on the sticker.
