Here's my story, paid a guy with a side business to do it for me, along with a bunch of "while in there" items. Feel I got a lot for my money.

Sadly, Raj from Beisan passed away in early 2021. Big loss to community. Long thread here if another forum link is allowed:

Bro this is some of the worst news I've heard in a minute.
Raj was amazing and did a ton for our community. I have emails from him 10 years ago helping troubleshoot my vanos issues. We lost a real one.
