Tom, I don't know, but what I do know is that you're probably going to =
be doing a lot more work trying to steam them that it would take to just =
put on a new set.=20
    Is this an upright or a grand, not that it matters much. You glue =
them on at the piano, and the wedge felt will pretty much find it's home =
without too much fitting later. I've done it a number of times, and =
believe me, it's not that hard. Even setting the damper timing is not =
that hard.=20
