Default Lokar Engine Oil Dipstick, experiences?

Has anyone used this?

It replaces our ugly dipstick with a nice stainless braided line, etc.

I have read where one person said that dipstick end broke off into the pan. Has anyone else had these experiences?

I have one...I haven't fully installed it. When I tried to put it in, it seems as though it doesn't fully seat like the stock piece. It really looks like it should go further into the mounting boss, but I'm afraid to push on it as I, too, have heard the horror stories about them breaking off into the pan...I, too, would like to hear more about the subject.

I guess the cliff notes version of this post would be TTT
