Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 42096 Name: Porsche 911 RSR
* 		42096-1 (Inv) Porsche 911 RSR
1580 Parts, 2019
Sets: Technic: Model: Race

* Change {310 to 328} Part Black 2780 Technic, Pin with Friction Ridges
* Change {7 to 9} Part Black 2780 Technic, Pin with Friction Ridges (Extra)

Comments from Submitter:
I don't know what to think about this. LEGO instructions state 310 of these pins and I counted 328. I thought "well, I might be off by 1 or 2, but 18??"
So, I counted again, slowly. 328. And 9 extras instead of 7. Have LEGO inventories in instructions ever been wrong before?

Well, I don't think TLG inventories were ever wrong if you are talking about
the quantities at the end of instructions. I'm not sure though, because I
didn't see them all .
TLG is certainly right with this part in this set. And that's no joke.
