Hello. Are there any doubleshot or other thicker keycaps with Swedish/Nordic layout which will fit a G80-1800 out there. Has to be new or in very good condition.

G80-1800 sets are always a bit harder to find because they have a few keys that are different from standard (see the wiki article for the 1800 for a list).

Round 5 leftovers have a NO set

that you can maybe combine with other leftovers and a base set from the new extras round. If you find everything you need, you still need a lot of patience, because there is no planned date at all as to when the extras GB will go into production -- could be well into next year.

Ok, I knew it would be hard. Do you know what keycaps this german keyboard has.

It has thin lasered PBT keycaps. You can look that up here: http://deskthority.net/wiki/Cherry_article_numbers
Only Cherry keyboards with scooped F and J keys have thick keycaps, the ones with little bars on them are always thin.

Also, that's a G81, the stabilizer mounting points on the larger keycaps might not be compatible with Cherry MX stabs.

Thanks for the answers. I have changed direction for now, where can I find grey keycaps like the keyboard I linked to earlier, they don't have to be thick.

If you don't mind orange and dark grey colorway there are some Norwegian Skidata around.

Probably be the easiest to find in that layout. I've seen white on black as well on standard G80/G81 models but they are definitely much more rare.

It's possible it exist in beige doubleshot, but I can't recall seeing them for sale ever so good luck. Probably find it in lasered PBT without too much trouble though.

I got a DE ISO beige doubleshot set with 1u bottom row from Ascaii a few years back...Pretty much the only one I've ever seen though.
