Thanks, I have installed on one of my Machs and all seems to function fine, but the instructions say you need to purchase the DSS Hex outer nut, I've compared travel of both original OPV and new DSS and travel seems to be the same. I don't really wanna buy the Hex and requisite tools, involving international shipping, if I don't have too. I did send DSS an email, but Im not very good at waiting lol, I believe its night time there. Thanks again.
 
I have a DSS OPV on my Oxycheq Signature 40, I also have DSS OPV on the 4 DSS wings we have. ;)

I purchased the OPV that comes with the hex ring for my Oxycheq wing.

I was able to remove the inner original part by hand, no need for tools. Try removing yours by hand first, you may not need a tool either.

At least on mine, Tobin talked me out of buying the hex modification.

Thanks for the reply. I'm not so concerned, bar possible cost, with actually replacing with a DSS Hex nut just am unsure why it is necessary. The travel is the same between the original OPV and the DSS OPV so am unsure what the benefit is in changing out Hex? I'm wondering if I'm missing something obvious? If there is a real reason why, e.g safety then I'm happy to do. Must say I do like the DSS OPV certainly looks more robust than the Oxycheq, I have had one break but I'm pretty sure that was due to rough handling, but none the less...
