[s-cars] CPS replacement

[chris chambers]

Varon,

I have purchased 4 of these CPS's 2 on the most recent Group buy, all 4 have had hollow rivets which makes me wonder if you have the correct
sensor.

I recommend either going to a machine shop that has a press and can
easily complete the install; or I have a hollow core rivet CPS I
can put in a UPS NDA envelope tomorrow, you'd have it on Tuesday.

You then mail me a check for $20, the NDA envelopes are UBER cheap for me.

Let me know ASAP if you want me to ship you this sensor.

Chris
