The weight is about the same, +- a few grams but absolutely nothing you would notice, because its aluminum its super lightweight.
Yes, the enamel disc can come off, but its not just a simple pop it out from the back, its properly stuck there, like... good and proper. So you will need to use some sort of a solvent to get at the glue at the back like I did.
For this project, I ended up buying a 2nd hand spare gear shifter, so I didnt have to sacrifice my original, and got the 2nd hand one for dirt cheap as it was pretty worn, and just got the refurb done on that one,so if it did go wrong, I didnt lose anything.
