I may try that hair dryer first. Do you think my SO will mind, ?
Harbor Freight has a nice one.
keep the SO happy and don't touch it.
The HF puts out a lot more heat.

I've had the same problem with the same shifters. I drilled mine out carefully, but it was time consuming, and I broke a drill bit and a fine milling bit for my Dremel. I simply bought a few more sets of those Simplex levers. Let me check to see what I have left over...


Is this the one? If so, it's yours. PM me.
