I think that your best bet is to mod one of the cherry spacebars

I believe that would involve cutting, since they are too long and the spots to connect to the stabilizers are misaligned.

Seems like it'd be a PITA, so I'd prefer to see if I can get one here first...

hmm..i dont think any official cherry spacebar will fit out of the box.

maybe you could buy someone's 'mooglekit' from the group buy 3 if you didn't get in on that

a 1x1 key is one unit.

if you publish a photo of a ruler along side the underneath of a spacebar that works, I'll check my stash of spacebars for a match. Really really.
I trolled Geekhack and all I got was an eponymous SPOS.

What I wanted was the underside so I know what the stabilizer and key switch spacing was.
