David, David, David,
Not to deny TSW any well-deserved revenue, but why did you "spring for the
extra bucks" to buy TSW-sourced MOMO pedal pads when yer MOMO *came* with
MOMO pedal pads...that fit almost exactly--no hacksaws, drills, files,
blow-torches, or arc welders neccessary. A couple-three washers and they
bolt right up!
