I like how cold and sturdy the black aluminium feels. I'm currently awaiting a free replacement for the fauly one. Will let you know as soon as it has arrived.
About the pin of the paddle: It seems there are multiple versions of this paddle. Older ones allow you to push the pin from the bottom. Newer ones dont, and you need to wiggle the pin out, which can be done by cutting a small notch into the pin, and using that to get some grip onto it.

Package is in transit, will keep you up to date.

Removing the rod from the button turned out to be much easier then I initially thought. I inserted a flat-bladed terminal-tool here, next to the plastic thing that holds on to the rod. After some wiggling the rod moved, and I was able to pull it out using small pliers on the other end.
