Esc and Delete key are quite... unique. Good luck finding replacements (there are none, in all the world).

GiorgioA lot of key cap sets have exotics that run an extra 40$ if you are willing to fork over the extra cash.
For example the Massdrop x T0mb3ry SA Carbon Custom Keycap Set has an Esc and Delete that are 1.5

MoeeedTotally digging the Nautilus, but the Esc and Del kills me. I bought an expanded DSA profile Carbon set from AliExpress that can cover 1.5U Esc and Del, but I'm a little afraid to pull out all the caps in fear of what's been happening to a lot of other boards.

Jino74I own this board with clears and have changed the caps. It's not too hard if you look around and find the right technique. Use a small flat head screwdriver and come in from the bottom side to hold the stem in place. Once the screwdriver is in place on the stem, lift up on it a little to give a bit of pressure, then pull up on the cap with a keycap puller and they just pop right off. Wiggle technique didn't work for me (I almost wiggled a whole switch out of the board). A quick search will find you a video of what I've just described.

KbdnewbieYou need to use a wire keycap puller. But we're disscussing the fact that there are only a few compatible keycaps, not how to remove the keys. BTW the great gmk set posted above, sadly, looks horrible with those esc and del key.
