New member, new upgrades!

Cheers, folks! Glad to be here. I just got an 2022 LC162S and I’d like to upgrade to a locking tailpiece. Any ideas? I have a tonepros meant for USA Gibson’s. 11mm bushings. Seems to be 82mm stud spacing. Think that’ll work?

Those are supposed to be fantastic. Trouble is, all of hardware is gold. Regular bright gold. I’d really like to keep everything matching. Maybe for my Gibson though!
