Looking to buy little white connectors for keycap stabilizer bar
« on: Sat, 03 December 2016, 17:09:38 »
While swapping out some new keycaps I realized the white plastic pieces that go into the keycap and connect to the stabilizer bars won't some out of the old caps. It' like they're glued in. Where can I purchase about 40 of these for standard Cherry switches?

they wont be glued in 90% sure, I would advise getting a pocket knife or some tweezers and trying to put it between where cap meets the white piece and tilt it and it should pop out

Here they are:

However, many have that "glued in" feel, but actually just need a bit of force to get out. Pry them with a very thin tipped chisel or something. tp4 is right... yep... I just said that.

Thanks guys, that will work on most of them, but I broke a couple trying to get them out. I did find them though and just ordered some from WASD.
