I have a Ducky G2 PRo dye keyboard

just wondered if i wanted to buy keycaps to replace keys, do any kepcaps work or do i need to get Ducky ones?
 
As long as the keycap is designed to go on Cherry MX Switches, it can go onto that keyboard. :)

Those OcUK stock are the type that I mean, but check out GeekHack/Deskthority as you'll find a lot of stuff there.
 
Just make sure the key layout for the replacement caps is the same as your keyboard. Otherwise you might end up with a short backspace key and a keyboard that has a double width one.
 
Another thing you need to look at is the backlit option. Don't get backlit key caps if your keyboard is not backlit or the other way around.
 
Just wondered why you wanted to maybe replace the key caps?
I was bought a SteelSeries 6Gv2 for Christmas by one of my son's, and the key legend started to show signs of bad fading in less than a week, (looking with a magnifying glass you could see the black coming through!). After 37 days trying to get a response from SS support, I bought WASD keys from a UK Ebay which seem much better. Cherry keys seem pretty universal, but not sure who makes the key caps for SS.
