Backlit compatible, you may want to look at Ducky's sets, over at mechanicalkeyboards.com. With the Pure and those sets, you may not be able to fit the right shift key.

Other than those, you should be able to get any set that are sold in group buys so long as you also pick up a ISO set. You need the smaller right shift and extra key. You'll have to just accept the ISO enter key and such in the process.

I believe these are them. They also have Black and Purple, but those are both sold out. They are Shine replacement caps, as they say. The Shine is a backlit board.

You can use a blank caps lock key for the right shift if you want. It's available from wasdkeyboards.com. It's a 1.75 key and you can buy it individually. Otherwise, you'll have to find a Tsangan kit if you want a printed one.
