These were made for a PUK group buy in 2011 by a forum member. I have never seen an off the shelf version. I feel it does improve brake feel and the initial feeling of bite, however improvements can be made to it. Read these:

It meant to stop or reduce the movement of the master brake cylinder resulting in better brake feel. Watch the vid in the last link I posted. The mounting points are different on the 4th.

That looks familar and they do not fit a 4th. Totally different pick up points... :(

Plus I think I've still got a few at home that never sold! ;)

Wouldn't be that hard to do if it was just a mirror image of it. But that is never the case! :roll:
