I still remember trying to install the "correct" nylon throttle shaft bushing from the Roadster Factory, I am a decent mechanic/fix it guy, and I am also very stubborn and persistent, but there was just no way those things were going on until I had trimmed them to the point where they were probably no better than the old ones that were in there in the first place. Finally gave up, I welded up a mount on some bearings for mine, and it has worked fine, but this solution looks so much more elegant, and would likely last forever, you would have to tap a couple small holes in your car to attach, but I think it would look pretty good installed, the beauty of it is you position and attach the bearing after the shaft is in place, actually my solution works the same in principle, but doesn't look near as pretty, nice price too.

If anybody is looking to replace and wants to give it a try would be interested in hearing about how it works, also I believe 3/8" is the right diameter but I would certainly double check before I ordered any.
