Can't really see the o-rings in the pics sorry.

I just measured one of my 603s plastic neck, they are 11mm wide, 20mm long and 3mm deep

Thanks for the info! Not even in the second photo? The are sandwiched together in that photo

Soooo I just received my new triggers and I'm happy to report that the Orings work fantastic at holding the transceiver with a 580ex attached. I held it in all directions giving it a rough shake and it didn't move a bit.

So I'm bringing this thread up because I'm still hoping that this can help some people out. I still don't have my laptop because I've had to send it back to best buy AGAIN (This makes the third time to get the screen fixed). The photos are hard to see I know but I really believe this is a good fix for the issue and I'd like some one with the ability to post to try for themselves and post something up for me. I've been dealing with bestbuy this whole time trying to get the laptop fix since the keep screwing it up and I don't want this to go away with out people at least trying it.

Thanks
-Chris

Even though they are out of focus, I can see the O-rings. Very clever. I used an elastic hair band looped over the back of the transmitter's hot shoe and the extension for the pop-up flash on the front of the camera's mirror box. It won't work if the camera doesn't have an extension for a pop-up flash, but your solution will. Besides, I have to put the hair band on every time I mount the transmitter and your O-rings probably stay in place all the time. I like it.

I'm hoping it catches on, the photos where taken with my iPod touch due to issues w my laptop being at best buy.... I had to send it in three times now, really annoying
