just received today my https://www.overclockers.co.uk/ek-w...5-pwm-d-rgb-distro-plate-plexi-wc-abu-ek.html

however after opening box seems missing 14 Nickel plated brass plugs , anyone else had this issue with this product ?

Pretty sure the mentioned nickel plated brass plugs are the plug inserts inside each port to give it added strength and probs to stop cracking/fractures.

I can clearly see the inserts are there in your pics.

are they already screwed into the distro?
can see a lot of black plug covers in your photo?
about 12 but may be 2 i cant see

The plugs are thread inserts, its just poorly worded by EK.

i know the inserts allow those push fittings
but seems strange to me i can see the black plug covers
just a nagging feeling those might pull off
and reveal g 1/4 plugs/blanks
though you may be right but my dodgy memory is niggling me
@Vidar got that distro
and almost sure he asked me something similar
i have the version 1 of it so not the same

It's the only logical explanation, there isn't even any nickel plated brass plugs in the photos of the product. I'm 100% certain its just poorly worded and those are it.

you could very well be correct
like i said
my memory sucks lol
i guess if the op takes out 1 of the black plastic things
they should be able to tell
its certainly not a cheap item so would be surprised if they dont
give you g1/4 blanks for unused ports

wow appreciate all the responses here thanks i thought what it says :

14x EK-Quantum Torgue Plug cover Black , those are there already screwed in

but then it says Nickel plated brass plugs , which would suggest 28 plugs in all 14 black 14 nickel plated

***edit just noticed the black caps pop of to reveal nickel underneath , gawd

appreciate all you guys jumping in here thanks

According to the product description there are 14 torque plug covers which im guessing are the black ones.

there you go for once my memory didnt
actually get it wrong lol
i guess it saves a little plastic bag
if they put the plug covers on the g1/4 blanks/plugs
while theyre assembling the distro in the factory
