Those Alpha sliders will not work as replacements for Odyssey's and the like.
Some place in GB has these custom made for them and they are something
like $7-$10 each (no LED though). My guess is these were custom built
for CMS (in various values AND colors).
An Oddy needs approx. 35 slide pots so the kit price isn't surprising to me.
But that install price....woah!
He has a great rep and he'll probably have no problem getting those
install orders...more power to him!
