question about griots backing plate - need answer before tomorrow morning

[mbaoo]

So I just bought a griots da with 6.5 pads. It was a last minute buy so I could get autogeeks free shipping.



I really want 5.5 pads though after doing some reading.



Will the Lake Country 5 inch back plate lake country 5 inch backing plate, 5 inch backin plate, 5 inch hook and loop backing plate work with the griots? And is this what I need to use these Lake Country 5 1/2 x 7/8 inch Beveled Edge Pads 6 Pack, foam pad kit, build a kit, buffing pads, curved edge pads pads? Im gonna call first thing in the morning to see if its possible to change my order.



Many thanks.

you can get free shipping at anytime with an order over $95 using the code " ago ".

don't know if it matters to you (to some it does), but some have reported not getting the exact pads that are pictured that are beveled, you might want to make sure and find out that they are...

Ohh.. I didnt know about the "ago" code.



I was already charged. So Im having doubts about changing my order. But I will try anyways.



And that is weird about the pads..

Ohh.. I didnt know about the "ago" code.

if you are doing an order that exceeds $95 and use the " ago " code, you have to calculate and see if it outweighs the 10% Autopian discount (code " autopia ") and then pick to see which one will save you more money overall...

 

[mbaoo]

Yeah, I knew about the autopia discount. It only took off like 7 bucks. I used my "agbucks" code instead which took 20 dollars off the order. Along with my free shipping I saved about 40 bucks.



So even if I cant chnage my order I wont complain due to the money I saved.

The same backing plates and pads that work on the PC will work on the Griot's 6" buffer.
