I ordered 6 of these trim ring retainers. At first they looked fine, BUT they have a serious issue. The threads are made as left hand threads and the finish of the threads is pretty poor. I say this after trying to thread a new oem nut onto the product. when I looked closely, I could see that the thread was left hand thread not right hand. so that makes them sort of useless. I don't think there is enough material to try and rethread as RH.
darn shame, but somewhere when they copied the design it got screwed up.
