LOL! if you look at the parts list (click the illustration) it shows JF00D.

if you get JF00B just send them back telling them you want JF00D (or atleast JF00C). i am PRETTY SURE they wont have any more JF00B's in-stock as it's been discontinued for a while and also known as a bad part.

there *might* be a interium-revision within RevB as mine's shaped like RevC but JF00B. i dont know if the shape has anything to do with the improvement or not since it was explained in the GTR recall to be an oiling problem inside the unit. the lock in my car was not having any issues..but didnt feel like taking my chance so replaced it.

you dont necessary need to buy the new screws if you want to source your own. you can pull out one from your car to see which size metric screw to buy locally.

Excellent write up! +rep

I'm going to pick one up and even if I don't get to swapping it out right away I'm going to carry it with me on the racing trailer. I have a 2008 build date so definitely one of the original faulty parts.
