Default Carrier bearing insert from ebay - anyone tried it?

I saw on ebay a $75 alternative to the aftermarket bearing assemblies and the "Jimi fix". It calls it a "printed poly insert". More elegant than the Jimi fix and cheaper than the other assemblies.
Just curious if anyone has tried it?

Looks like you would have to take some time to completely clean the rubber out of the OEM carrier to be able to slide that in. I've had a brand new Lobro shaft waiting to go in my CTTS for a while as a preventative replacement. May put install it this fall and I'll definitley see how easily it is to clean out the carrier of the rubber.

Rubber needs cleaned with Jimmie fix as well
