Default Cee Baileys RG well nut upgrade?

anyone tried this? http://compare.ebay.com/like/3103293..._lwgsi=y&cbt=y

I use the CB wellnuts and they are better than the stock ones, the shoulders are thicker and they won't push thru the fairing. I agree the most common mistakes made are over tightening and not pushing them up against the fairing before tightening them so the wellnut is not seated against the fairing

I have swapped windshields 3x, havent really had any problems it just doesnt seem like a very good design for purpose of holding a windshield on.
