Sir, I'd like to buy a few set after breaking the driver-side bezel on my LWBS installing the Exclusive Option bolster protectors! I sent you an email to what you supplied above the other day, so you can just respond to that.

Thanks!
Thanks, I was a little thrown off by how many you wanted, and forgot to respond... I'll pull up your email and reply now.

Just broke mine installing my edguards. Strange as I've done it before with no issues. Are you still making this part? Thank you!

I need to make another batch or three. That will take a couple of weeks realistically but I'll get on it. I think I will also try to get crazy Eddie to do a video specifically on popping the bezel free. If you do it the way he shows, there is virtually no risk of breaking one.

I could use a few of these too. I managed to forget how easy it is to push the adjustment switch out from underneath and instead tried to pull it out. Ugh.

Can I get 4 (1 for now and 3 for future brain fade moments?

I'm making another big batch of these now, and should be able to ship in the next day or two. Send me an email at admin@carpokes.com if you need a bezel or three. They are $25 each, or 2 for $45 (raw materials have gone up since the last batch.) Only available to registered Carpokeans! :angel:

Here's a quick video I did showing how to best put them on the switch. They are resin printed and reasonably strong, but the little clips inside are the weak point, so this video shows how to install the bezels without stressing out the clips. :)

Just have him email me at admin@carpokes.com -- that will be the fastest way I'm sure...
