If you contacted them by email, be patient, but then call them on the phone if you don't get an answer.  For whatever reason, it can be difficult to get through to them, and there's a chance they won't respond to your email at all.

Did you get an answer on this? My 08 had the encoders and I got it converted some years back, the encoders started to get really jumpy and inaccurate after about a year of use so I feel your pain! I had a quick search around to see if any stores still have them in stock, but no luck I'm afraid.

unfortunately the kits are no longer available  :-[ They suggest replacing the encoders with these:
The following ALPS Encoder part can replace all of the old style of grey, plastic shafted encoders: https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Alps-Alpine/EC12E2420801?qs=m0BA540hBPdaLIy4F3c5Mg%3D%3D 

So that will cost me around 500 Euro to get all encoders replaced by a technician. Since its only a handful that are jumpy I am a little unsure what to do. I might just do it. But I am also considering selling it and try to get the Rev2 used..
