Hipshot "Licensed" Replacement tuners on a Spector

I traded for the Spector Rebop on this forum, but whilst changing strings a tuner broke. It was replaced by my luthier with the nearest replacement he had, but it wasn't a perfect match. I concluded that if one broke so might another and it was time to replace them all. At the same time I thought I might save a little weight not that this is a heavy bass, it weighed in at only. 3.7kg.
I was surprised at the cost of Hipshot's at about £100, but found on a US site the"Licensed" version at about half the price. Fortunately I have family in California so bought the tuners on free post in the USA and collected them on a recent visit.
The change over was so easy, they lined up perfectly even with the screw hole and when I re-weighed the bass now is only 3.5kg! Result!
