Ship CDs for $1.64 each and T-shirts for $2.49

[octavia]

Hi I would like to be able to configure my shipping methods to do this:

All CD's (no matter the cost) ship for $1.64 each
All T-shirts (no matter the cost) ship for $2.49 each

Could someone help me find the easiest way to get this accomplished?
I was hoping there would be a way to put a shipping cost/per catagory.

Any help/documentation to do this would be greatly appreciated.

I also tried the steps below.. still isn't doing what I want

The per-weight shipping module can be used for this.

1. Turn on the Per-Unit (perweightunit) shipping module in Admin->Modules->Shipping

2. Now manually edit *each* product and enter the shipping cost as the product "weight".
This module uses the product-weight as the shipping rate for this product ... ie: it is no longer the weight -- it is only the shipping cost.

3. Turn off weight display everywhere, since it is no longer meaningful.
a) Admin->Catalog->Product Types->[select your product type]->Edit Layout->Show weight->false
b) Admin->Configuration->Shipping/Packaging->Display Number of Boxes and Weight Status
c) Admin->Configuration->index listing / all listing / new listing / featured listing ... turn off the weight on these
