First time split spacebar (lemmy.world)

My keyboard supports split spacebar's, and I'm wondering if it's as simple as me adding another switch, mapping both to space and adding split spacebar keycaps. Do I need to change my stabs at all?

Sorry for the noob question.

You would need to change from your current stab to 2x 2u stabs.

Although Idk why you would bother if you're going to map both to space, most people map one to backspace or sometimes return.
