I doubt it, the case was never intended to be removed at all. They put the guts in fill it with some type of epoxy and then the cap goes on, never to be opened again. I wish you the best of luck..

I fix them often for locals. I just use a hot Solder iron to melt the plastic back together, then smooth it with sand paper.

Never heard of or saw these before...

Not sure how good they are as AMB recommends not to mount them on CF

I would question weather it's actually carbon fiber. I see stuff all the time that has "carbon fiber" on it and it's really not. I've had no issues mounting a PT on a CF chassis but I don't think I would put it in CF case:weird:
Real CF for $4 makes me wonder too.:sneaky:

Its plastic with a carbon patterned print - This is obvious when viewing the picture.
