Hello all

Thank you very much for every feedback and suggestions.
We try to produce with the greatest accuracy.
Here even 1 millimeter, it makes a huge difference

There is a minimum size difference (indicators)
We had to make "optimum dimensions" for both versions
That is why it can happen, in one case they will fit perfectly.
In another it's minimal cramped.
Counter indicator - visually identical.
But they have minimal dimensional differences.
I think that although it is somewhat understandable, my text.
I use translator

I greet all users

Hi Robert!

I did have to trim about 1mm off of each side ring for them to fit, but it took less than 5 minutes. I used a Dremel and cutoff wheel, though I did not cut, just lightly pressed the end of the ring against the spinning face of the cutoff wheel. It would be easy enough to do with sandpaper, also.

I really like the way they snap in. Very easy install

Matte finish (AKA brushed aluminum):

They look great! Very pleased!
