Hi All,

Ok, I replaced my factory black levers for the Agency 6 ones. The paint shop didnt realize they had some thin washers that go on the bolt, and so they kept trying to tighten 1 of the bolts so it holds the lever firmly to the panel. Doing this broke one of the mounting points that the bolt screws into. The backing plate that is inside the actual freedom panel. Now it pivots. So I ended up using some JB Weld expoxy and finally have it fixed. So question, other than replacing the panel, I assume there is no possible way to replace that backing plate that is built into the freedom panel that the bolt that holds the lever into?

Like Bluedevil said, that’s their mistake to fix.

This is exactly why they have liability coverage. Sucks to be the bad man but they've diminished the value by damaging it.
