Title: Keycaps for laptops
Post by: adigaforever on Wed, 13 February 2013, 11:54:05

Hey guys I'm new here and I've been trying to find a nice layout for my MEKA G1 keyboard and while at it I thought why not ask about changing the keycaps on my laptop too,
I have a Gigabyte model q1580p and I believe it's a standard clip keys and I was wondering if there are colored key caps for it.

This the clip type.

Thanks a lot, I will open later on another topic for my Meka g1 keys

Welcome to Geekhack!

They are scissor switches.

IIRC there are places you can get stickers to stick on the keycaps, but not custom keycaps.
