I need one spacebar keycap + the attached C clip only.

I do not need the rubber plunger nor the two side retaining clips (the ones mounted on the board itself).

This will be going on a new keyboard, so cosmetically it must appear like-new.

Again, this is for an NMB keyboard (FRU 42T3145).

If you've got one of these, please PM to discuss payment/shipping.

Yeah, I contacted that particular seller a couple days ago, seeing as he's the only one advertising "new" key caps. Problem is, he said he doesn't have any new NMB type spacebars left. All the other sellers are selling used/refurbished.

If I can get one new or near-new from someone here, all the better. eBay is my Plan B.

Hi,

I think I can help you. I notice you have an T60 NMB keyboard, but French Canadian model. However, the <SPACE BAR> appears to be exactly the same as the U.S. English NMB keyboard (magnifying glass logo printed in blue on left side may be slightly different I'm not sure), but seems to be exactly the same size. And I believe all T60 NMB keyboards use the same mechanism under the keycap, no matter what language. So if you need one at a reasonable price- used, but in MINT, like-new condition (no visible shine) just send me an email (see signature below). Once again, this is a <SPACE BAR> keycap + attached C clip from a U.S. English T60 NMB keyboard which uses the Blue bumpers of course.

Daniel.

@Thinkpad Lover: Email sent.

Edit: Bought one from Thinkpad Lover.

Thanks!
