Tribal Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 tried to find a gen one since a long time with no luck.Sometimes a gen bezel pop up, but no Retaining Ring. So Mr.Slimeball has a complete Set. Bezel , Washer, Clickspring and Reitainer for 16610. Has anybody bought one, any experience with the Set? Let me know.

Blue1 Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 I've seen several members claim it's no good but never seen a build using this bezel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneed12 Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 I've used this bezel. Size is hit or miss, that's the biggest problem. Also the price is pretty high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Back around the time of the Euromariner, 2-3 years ago, people were trying the WSO assembly, mostly with not much luck. I'd buy one only if I'd exhausted all other possibilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martyd3 Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 I have one. It's yours if you want it. Marty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highoeyazmuhudee Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 bought a set from him for a 1:1 16610 sub, it was too loose and fogged under the crystal. i could push the assembly on by hand, ultimately returned it. his stuff is no good. im now convinced of this ad nauseam . even his crown tubes have a high rate of failure, ripping right in half during a routine install, the metal is a cheap light tin or something, yukis are built way better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His claims of 1:1 are [censored], his bezel assembly does not work on genuine cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribal Posted December 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 Thanks guys for all your comments. So it seems that is no option for a WM9 replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbh Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 Fortunately for me I've been banned from using his sites. He's the only negative feedback I've ever left on eBay. His attitude sux and most of his stuff sux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_sphere Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 Tribal, I have tried the assembly you are talking about with limited success. There are a lot of issues with it. My advice would be to try a TW best assembly, given that the sizes are the same on that front (v1 to v2 I am not sure). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highoeyazmuhudee Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 agreed maybe try the TW. or maybe jmb could manufacture one for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribal Posted December 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 TW is no option here, it's not better than WM9 assembly. Gen one are nearly impossible to find for a fair price. Maybe I try to get a gen bezel and modify the WM9 Retaining Ring. My Hybrid WM9 needs an update . Thanks guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eiderdaus Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 A tw bezel is no better than wm9. Can't hear the stuff about tw best anymore......the tw cutouts are uncorrect to small, to...... This would not be an enhancement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
