Guise,

I am looking for a single F3/F4 key. Anyone have a dead machine around that can spare a tooth?

NTSC key in particular. Although a PAL key might work in a pinch. :lol:

I will keep my eye out for one. I see broken C128's show up on eBay now and again for cheap - it may be worth it just so you have other spare parts, too.

I will dig through my key caps tomorrow and see if that is one of my spares.

Success! There was indeed a spare function key in my grab back of caps.

Awesomeness!!! rpiguy came through to save the day!

I'm taking advantage of a much needed day off to retrobrite the other keys to match his. I'm thrilled that the C128 I picked up will have a new tooth!

Although, she's yet to come alive...we're getting there!

Thanks all! And thanks especially to @rpiguy9907!
