Some people have said that the spacer will just slip out, but that hasn't been my experience (I've been on switch #3 for awhile). I got them from different FLAPS, and they all more or less said, "Popular item, huh?" Looks like time to find one that I'm sure is von Deutschland, but that one will inevitably screw up, too (the original did, after all.)
