Glad I could help. The spheres simply unscrew from the actuator. You may need a chain wrench or a belt wrench; a ground down open end wrench may also work. If you look closely, there is a large nut at the end of the sphere closest to the actuator, it's part of the sphere. The sphere's simply spin off. I hear they can be a bear to break loose. You can ship these to Keith Bowes, who's email is somewhere on this board, but I don't have it handy. He will recharge for $150.00 a piece. Beats the $500 plus the dealer will charge for each. The only problem is, the brake fluid may have disolved your membrane. Thereby making recharging not an open. I would suggest trying to source through a junk yard on a relatively new wreck. Keith will tell you whether yours will hold a charge and not bill you if they are shot. Since you are oversees, he may be willing to tell you the process of drilling tapping and recharging, so you can do it yourself. With the right equipment, it should be simple, if you know the pressure.
Best of luck. I wish it was better news.
