Logitech G710+ Key Replacement

So I have had this keyboard for a little while probably around 6 months. As time has gone on the keys on the keyboard have been getting loose and leading to break from just normal use. The issue I have is similar to the issue over at this forum post I found [link]. Looking around for keycaps, I have noticed they are are on the pricey side, however, if they are good I'll get them. The issue that I am running into, is that I am not sure if my keyboard has standard key sizes. It appears that the space bar may be a tad longer and the start/meta key is just the size of a stand key where the sets I am looking at have a longer start/meta key. Can somebody help me find the proper set that I need to buy.

What set is the thing, I am concerned about the not standard keysize and I don't know what set to buy exactly.

The G710+ uses the standard cherry mx switches so go by this spreadsheet:

Also when you have a problem with ANY Logitech product, send a message to the folks over at their warranty service, they may just send you your replacement keys, or send you a new keyboard for free, which happened to me, I can't express this enough, Logitech is a great company.

Non Standard Key Spacing for the g710+:

Key sizes in the CTRL / ALT / WINDOWS / SPACEBAR / etc row are (from left to right are) 1.25 1 1.25 spacebar(6X) 1.25 1 1 1.25

I own and recommend this set by Max Keyboard, they include pretty much every key size you'll need, including ISO layouts:

http://www.amazon.com/Max-Keyboard-Universal-Cherry-Translucent/dp/B00EGKW9XG/

That specific version has the 'stealth' look with letters printed in the front. If you're not a touch typist and prefer having your legends on top there's also a version that way:

It's slightly easier than going around making sure every key works.
