Done. Putty came with it and off on the first pull. Seems the slightest bit sticky but I assume that will wear in over time. Anyone else notice this after a fresh install?

I didn't have a first pull success like Joe but I got it in 3 pulls. Mine does not have any stickiness.

Nice. I don't think mine is sticking after further inspection. I think it's just the sound of the mechanism.

Well it was bugging me. What I thought was sticking is the button rocking a little. The original button is a perfect cylinder with no cut outs. The Amazon button has a lot of cutouts and notches. I swapped the black one back in and it is noticeably smoother. I'm going to try and find another that is a perfect cylinder. Yeah, I'm over the top, but it bugs me.

The blue button looks cool but I run red accent lights so I prefer the red button.

So to recap, this is the one that I ordered and didn't sit perfect for me. The cutouts are actually different then the picture, some deeper from bottom to top:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...0?ie=UTF8&th=1 I ordered this one this morning based on the picture, we will see, I have a feeling it will be the same and not like the picture, but fingers crossed: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 If IND gets back to me, I will probably order that one, but now we are talking $45 ish shipped for a firggin plastic button! Button-gate!

The first video is from a buddy who ran out to his garage for me last night after I put the red one in. The second is mine. You can hear a double click and the tactile feel is definitely not as smooth.

Good news and bad news. The new red button is an exact match to the OEM button. Same two cutouts on the bottom and solid all the way around, just like the OEM button. Tactile feels the same. The bad news is the writing is off center a tad, so it looks crooked, like at 11 o'clock. I can't have that.
Exchanging for another and hoping this one was just manufactured incorrectly. Red button saga continues
