I am looking to replace some of the keys on my black widow but have never done it before. Is it possible ? If so could someone please tell me what I need to search on Amazon to find the correct keycaps ? Thank you !

Do Razer Phantom keycaps fit all Razer mechanical/optical keyboards?
How are these keycaps different from Razer PBT Keycaps?
Does this set fit all Razer keyboards?
Hello I was looking into getting keycaps for my Razer BlackWidow TE Chroma v2 keyboard. I was wondering if you guys know of any textured or rubber keycaps? Thanks a lot for the help.
Most mechanical keycaps are pretty universal if you're just looking for WASD or any of the small keys. Space bars and shift and enter etc. are where it gets fishy with stabilizer bars. So you shouldn't have a problem if you really just wasnt WASD or QWERDF or something like that. The custom mechanical keyboard community is pretty lively so you should have plenty of options although I recommend these:
If you want to keep it consistently Razer, they have QWERASD, but for whatever there's no F key, so if you're a MOBA kinda guy, you're at a loss unfortunately. But these are nice nice keycaps nonetheless.

There's custom keycaps you can have made at MaxKeyboard that are real neat. You can make an icon in Photoshop and submit it to them for a backlight compatible keycap. They also have some premade icons even a bunch for CSGO, if you're into that. You can also pick your spacebar, Window sizes so you definitely can get what you need, but you'll have to do some research about your particular spacebar, ctrl, Windows key sizes. Definitely love these keycaps, though.

As for textured keycaps, WASDKeyboards has some different textures that are nice, although they are not backlight compatible.

HyperX has some titanium QWERASDF ones, can't say I love the texture though.

Corsair has some QWERASDF ones and for whatever reason they have two W keys in there. But it looks like only white is in stock.

Honestly, textured caps hasn't ever really been my thing, so maybe my textured suggestions aren't great, but I highly recommend the metallic Razer caps and the custom MaxKeyboard caps. Good luck!
Thanks
Hi everyone,
I recently bought a steaply discounted Blackwidow Chroma v2 which is missing some keycaps that is:
C, M1 and the four directional arrow keys
and it's also missing the metal retainer for the space bar.
As such I'd like to know if it's possible to get replacements keycaps for those keys only.
Are they standard in shape? There exist suitable third party replacements?
I mostly care about the C key being equal in shape to the other keys. I've seen what looks like a complete official set of replacement keys but that would cost me far more than the keyboard itself and if possible I would like to get only the needed keys. Fyi I'm in Europe as it will probably limit my options.
Thanks for the help.
I saw this online yesterday here and I want to know where I could buy custom caps like these for my black widow? I want some dedicated buttons for my numberpad like twitter, reddit, spotify ect.
So I can easily launch applications instead of having to remember which key launches which application.
Does anyone know where I could buy some custom keys for this keyboard?
I have been wondering this, but why does Razer NOT reccomend pulling keycaps off of the keybards? My last keyboard (BlackWidow Ultimate 2014) got super dirty, and the compressed air trick that they reccommended did not do anything, and I fear that my v2 Chroma may end up the same way. Would getting a keycap puller help? I am thinking about buying the Razer keyboard enhancement kit so I can clean it (which I think is strange that they sell this with a puller, but they do not reccomend pulling the keycaps off of the keyboard.
