Default Bonnet cables shuttle housing

Found an old article where someone was making uprated housings, using a PA12 polymer material and probably using a 3D printer.

Does anyone know if anything came of this and were they any good?

Arctic has found the link. I got one whilst they were still available (not too expensive) and a cheap do if you get the locked bonnet gremlins caused by a neglected OEM shuttle!
Not fitted it yet because my nano 'upgraded' original one is working fine after a complete clean/lubrication and a new set of cables - should it fail in the future I'll use the Ez-Zee job because it certainly looks the dogs do da's

Default Shuttle box

I've made a batch of shuttle box covers/brackets in stainless that will make sure it never comes off unless you want it to! If you want to see a picture please send me a PM.
