Will this fit a 450 G6 or 650 G6?
No - G6 uses a different chassis and connector. G4 and G5 models only.

Yes, this US base is widely used for stickers, but for permanent use buy a native AZERTY version.

Is it clicky or low-travel?
Standard ProBook scissor switches - feedback matches the original.
