Had to do that to get this rubber to fit as well.

Just use thin / cheaper springbars & a strong springbar tool or small flathead screwdriver to maneuver into the holes and it's not that bad. Save the good bars for your steel so it will fit snug and easy once you change back from rubber & just leave the cheap bars in the rubber at all times.
Makes life way more easy.
Can be a little annoying though.[emoji14]

I have brand new springs for my bracelet and the older ones that he replaced. I think they are in good enough condition to use so I thought I might just use them with the rubber. Otherwise I'll have to order a pair .

I'm pretty quick with changing bracelets . I'm sure Om3ga_guy can coach me through the spring bar adjustment. I can use my OEM spring bars that were just removed in lieu of the new ones

becuse spring bars are nasty little buggers and like to fly away when you put to much pressure on them.
Also for me, switching bracelets is always a pain in the ass and takes me a long time.
Very frustrating.
Sure it's not that way for everyone else though

I've done it tons of times with a round edge or you can buy this. The bend you apply to the springbars is very mild.
