How about a photo of the new control panel?  Not that I want one, you understand, but just for possible future reference...

Good job Roland.  Better the switch pad than something in the transmission.

So you said (earlier post) "This shift pad does not have the gel pad it has switches".

I'm not clear on what is different...  Is it just the material surface on the "buttons"?  Are these smooth plastic instead of the silicon rubber stuff?  Does the button actually move when you push it, or does it just read the pressure?  Just curious...

Actual micro switches under the pad. Otherwise looks the same, feel is different though.
