Mine has been shipped. Should be here soon. I'll let you know how well it works when I get it.

Works just great. Installed it on Saturday night. Took all of about 5 minutes. Biggest culprit was "walnut cracking" the old connector off with a pair of pliers. It works, but it wasn't as brittle as I thought it would have been for a 24 year old part.





After that, it's really simple. New part slips right on and works great....



Slip the cable into the slot





As soon as the stopper enters the slot, the cable is captured inside the connector... so it's not going anywhere.



Turn the TB lever counter-clockwise to be able to latch the connector onto the TB peg



Release and you're done.

Well mine broke after two weeks use. Cable pulled right through the end and about half inch of the tip broke off. I'm emailing the company today.
