There is someone on the other board that did it. Might want to hit him up about it.

Hassan did it because he had a ton of money in his car already so he decided to just do the swap.

At least 2 people have done it, unless you have a lot of money & patience t is probably not worth it. I have both so maybe i am impartial.
