Okay, okay okay - I mentioned this before, I PROMISE I will make a mold
and test cast a replacement clip this weekend.
The only issue in supplying these is the following comments/questions:
- You can have any color you want, but what I'll supply will be white
(you'll have to paint them);
- they would not clip onto the inside of the case like the stock
units, they would have to be SuperGlued;
- due to the nature of the resin, whereas the original clips would
probably last 5-6 years before wearing enough to be replaced, these
replacement clips would last - oh I don't know, I'm trying to edtimate
the durometer comparisons of two different materials - let's say 6
months to a year. Probably a LOT longer, but there's be no guarantee.
- what would be a "fair" price (I'm set up to take PayPal for all our
non-US readers) for a set of 4? Shipping would be extra, but I'm a
pretty "fair" guy as well (I was the one selling brand new dongles for
$5 a few months back).
I could possible make a replacement (white) hatch for the MP2000/21000's
ports - is there interest?
Also, the real 4 rubber feet for the MP2000/2100 are available at
SunRemarketing - just take some anti-nausea medication before you see
the price!
