Excellent! I need to do this badly and now I don't have to fumble around figuring it out.
Thanks for the post and especially a close up of the parts you used (including part numbers). So many people don't do this and it's nice to not have to search for everything.

I usually just put duct tape over their mouths.

I don't know why some widows can talk so much, but sometimes....
