Mark my words, I'll find a way to repay this kind deed!

i tried one of those, but due to the curved CD slot opening, it just wouldn't grip. i adjusted it to the point that the mounting tabs cracked, and it still didn't grip.

could you post a pic of the portion that gets shoved in the CD slot?

I went with a 0 grade. There was 00 and 0000 but I figured there was a fair amount of buildup on the tips so it'd be easier to go with a coarser grain. I also used some compound and polish (in that order) to achieve a better finish.

There's a small tab on the other side that you have to flip so this piece locks into place. It's pretty sturdy and shouldn't fall out unless if you yank on it.

I thought I read something about the GTR being illegal in the US, but I see them all over, including at dealers.
What's the deal with that?
