Thanks for the excellent pictures WarBird .

Thanks also to David G , it seems your perseverance has paid off and benefited us all .

It is great to have a solution to what i have found on a few occasions to be a potentially dangerous design fault . I have had a few near misses when unable to avoid bumps .I certainly wouldn't let an inexperienced driver out in mine .

At times the BSD on here have I feel been unecessarily aggressive in their responses to the debate . Being told it was part of the character or in one case to " get over it " has at times really pissed me off . I hope now that MMC have modified the design for 2014 and offered a solution for current models that they will have the good grace to accept it is a real problem .

I look forward to having it fitted to mine ,I can't really see why it has to be done at the factory , anyone got any idea why ? It looks pretty straightforward .
