Title: Do Costar 2U stabalisers fit 1.75U key caps?

They seem to be too wide, but 1.75U bars don't seem to be generally available.

Theoretically, you can do without the stabilizer for a 1.75u key.

Yes but I think using a stabiliser is better for 1.75U

I assume your keycap has stems for stabilizers, in that case you could bend your own wire for the purpose.
