Looks way better. How about popping out the pip from the first insert and using it on the current one?

Thanks guys! The partial pip is now lost in the carpet Ky and doomed to become a little rustling sound the next time i vacuum clean!!
After trying to explain the differences, the cost, my anticipation and the level of joy on receiving this new insert my wife only comment was "God is in the Details"...

Sorry to hear about the pearl. Wonder what your wife's response will be when you tell her you might have to pay a few hundred dollars for a tiny piece of plastic.
