Anyone else still have the big grey endcap toppers that stick out like 8 inches? A lot of them are broken and we can't order parts for them anymore. But I guess we can't get the new ones without a remodel.

You can order the white endcap headers before remodel - we had a mix of both (our seasonal department all used white) because all of our gray broke for seasonal and we could never find any replacements for the department.

Maybe they just didn't want to use the fixture budget for it, so they were trying to get the DSD to approve it for free. I do wish they would just bite the bullet. The old ones suck so much.

I think because they want aisle numbers on the entertainment fixtures going forward. I already put white on mine (due to grocery sharing the same block) but it’s gonna look so tacky going forward. Especially with the border.

Ours already have numbers on them from remodel a couple years ago- grey to match the rest of the block.

I agree, using those new stickers will look tacky on the wood fixtures.

I can’t wait for the fix it kit for the fix it kit for those aisle numbers. I get it’s meant to speed up the process but more and more I don’t like the idea of them lol.

Thankfully I still have all of the aisle numbers from remodel so I could always make another B10 from a Z10 with the extra B’s not used in that block. I did that a few times so far for quick blocks that needed it.
