So this may be dumb question from a non-engineering type but what's the point of the plastic anyway, vibration isolation? If they just tapped the metal it would waller out and crack? The few adjusters I have left feel just as tight as if they were metal, but I'm sure they have _some_ give.

If I were to go to the pick & pull I'd take my little propane flame thrower & I'd gently heat the adjusters before trying to pop them out ! I think this would help! & remember to take a screw driver and just push on the clips, don't try to manhandle them out .... My 2 cents & hope it helps,,, best, John C... SLC, UT...
