Jason:
I did the same thing as you. IIRC you can put the tab stop (?) on
the pod side, away from the lever, in a couple of the 4 possible
positions. I happened to have a pair of the ones without the tab that
I used, but as said above, there are about a billion of those washers
out there.
FWIW, I installed the pods with the D-rings on the inside per
instruction. Next time I re-cable I'm changing them to the outside so
I can more easily cinch down the D-rings on the fly. I still haven't
discovered the magic combination of washers to prevent the D-rings
from gradually loosening up. They're supposed to be on the inside for
protection so there is a good reason.

I would have sworn that my shifters came with both styles. In any
case I would expect any good bike shop, or Riv, has a pair of these in
its spare parts drawer, that not that rare since they were on
virtually every road bike, with bar ends, sold for many decades.
There's more than one size floating around out there and shops that
service older bikes are sure to end up with them.

I should've read the posts regarding this before I purchased SIlver
downtube shifters to use with my Shimano bar end shifter pods.
As many of you know the shifters come with a round washer with a
square hole that has a little tab on it that acts as a shifter stop
when mounted on a downtube boss.
But..it seems nobody sells the round washers with the square hole
WITHOUT the tab.
I could grind it down, but does anyone know how to get the correct
washers without purchasing the bar end shifters?
thanks
