Will the spacebar work with Costar stabilizers? Like this keyboard, https://www.massdrop.com/buy/fl-esports-gt104-rgb-mechanical-keyboard

x086tl;dr answer : very likely it will work on that keyboard. that looks like a normal bottom row spacing. costar stabs don't make a difference.
There are many styles of space bar, but there is no difference between space bars that use costar stabs and cherry stabs. For costar stabs, you need to remove the white plastic tab under the existing keycap and move it over to the new keycap. This video doesn't show him actually transferring the plastic tab, but you can see the tabs very clearly in the video.

Now, having said that, there's a plethora of space bar configurations. The most common, a 6.25U wide space bar with 3 stems. There's a center stem, and one each 50mm to either side of it. This space bar will fit that, but it also has 3 other stems for greater compatibility. There's the center stem, one stem 12.5mm off to the right, and to either sides, one stem 40mm from the center, and one stem 50mm from the center.

x086Yes. As long as the spacebar is Cherry MX compatible, it'll fit on either Cherry or Costar stabilizers. If you have Costar make sure you have the little plastic tabs that fit into the spacebar. The orientation of them are very important so make sure you take note on how they are installed.
