I also use the Biondo Mushroom style button, although the first one didnt work, Jegs had no problem replacing it for me...

I have it mounted by the shifter. I have another question for you guys on this topic. Which finger or thumb do you find most consistent for release? I have only used my thumb and was pretty consistent. .011, .015, .007, .015 then had a couple .040's after that...The problem I have is when I am heavy (pressing hard on the button) I come up 40. Is it easier to use a finger as opposed to a thumb to remedy this or is just by use? Thanks and sorry to hijack but still keeping on the TB idea.
