I just finished rebuilding my brake regulator with the PMB DIY rebuild kit and it looks like new. Only thing left is to set the switch to 525 psi. I'm guessing I could send it to PMB to have them set it, but wondering if this could be done locally at a brake shop. Anyone know?

Just to close this out, I emailed PMB about setting the regulator or sending it in to have them do it. I got an email from the man himself saying that if I didn't have a gauge and hydraulic pump, I could just adjust the adjuster so it protrudes 10mm out of the spring housing as that's close to where they all seem to be set from the factory.

I'm going to take it to the local European car specialist that does most of the German car work around here and see it they can set it. If not, I'll just follow Eric's suggestion.
