Following up on this, has anyone tried these and compared them to their old factory ones?

Trying to decide whether to eek it out with what I've got or replace with new ones. They look very good in the pics—about the only issue I can see is four subtle dimples where the brass attachments were likely melted in on the back side. That seems a fair compromise in replacing 48yo brittle plastic—the factory pods might just be the cheapest feeling factory parts I've found on my 914 over 31 years.

How is fit and finish in real life?

Do a search I did a mini-review a while back (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
