to bad they put those slits. you could of just finished the bridge off. but i cant imagine the corner seals lasting with those gaps in between where there should be a complete bridge surface to ride on...

put them on eBay... someone might get them for cheap.

Looks very similar to an early Cameron Worth "finger" port I once saw except the fingers were seperated (didn't have those channels). Apparently it worked and wasn't as fragile as a bridge.

Whatever.
