I posted the sequence on heres years ago, so check it out. The manual cost me 300 bucks, the pedals were 100 and that was about it.

The rest was time and patience.

So.......how bad do you want that manual in there?
I will have to go find this write up you speak of, and see how bad i do want that manual!
