Hello everyone.
I was wondering if some guy here could point where to get, or luckilly could provide some parts for a couple of Amiga keyboards i've got missing.

I would need six key springs for the old A500 keyboard that has the C= key, these are quite odd since they're really thin and somehow long,
it's completelly different from the ordinary Mitsumi keyboard we are used to, they're inserted into the key holder instead being placed surrounding the holder.

If somebody could point how to get some of these little springs, or maybe some kind of fix, it would be just awesome, i've been looking locally for quite a long time so far, still, no joy.

Also, i would need three keys for the A600 keyboard, again... Not the Mitsumi one. These turned to be almost impossible to find online either.
Keyboard will operate normally without the keycap, however is ugly and uncomfortable as hell, as you can guess.

This alternate keyboard format looks cheaper than the Mitsumi, but i can't recall if it appeared earlier or later than the M one.

If you can provide any aid about these problems, please don't hesitate to contact me. I really need to get these units working.

Thank you very much.

If I recall, for the hi-tek keyboards (C= ones) I think you can trim a spring from a ball point pen to work.
 
I have a complete switch for the Amiga 500 hi-tek keyboard (spring included of course).
And i'm searching for the "`" hi-tek keycap (that's the key above the tab-key).

Would you like to trade somehow?
