Contact EBMM customer service, NOT the forum. They would have you for lunch if you dare post a problem with a product. Customer service is easy to work with and ask them to sell you a jack. Tell them the problem, and you never know, they might just send you one free. I'm NOT saying they will, but I've heard of it hapening. Anyway, you can at least purchase the right jack.

Muppet Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Their forum might be hit and miss but their customer service has always been excellent in my experience. I'd not put it past them to chuck you one out free if you give them the sob story.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
