Here's a complete thread I put together on aftermarket vs genuine inserts.

And another thread on inserts:

By the way, there are fake inserts without the "hooked 2s." Make sure sure read the complete posts referenced above.

Your insert is genuine...of course.

Cheers for sharing jP. Those threads were excellent; I now have a better idea of what a hooked 2 looks like. Again, to me, the hook is not very apparent in my insert. Also, I have the "flat nose" 4's. If you had not pointed them out, I would have zero idea, so a massive THANK YOU for sharing!

Unfortunately, I do not have the competency to remove the insert to check on the thickness. Truthfully, even if I was able to, I would have nothing to compare to, and with my clumsy nature, I may go as far as to break the insert!

Your last line... was a little harder to interpret. Am I reading your opinion is that my bezel is genuine... correct?
