Here's one for you guys. Does anyone know what it would cost to do a 3"chop on either a Streamliner 2 door sedan or a Chieftain 2 door sedan? I am talking about ballpark pricing or even how many hours it would take. I am just outside of Saskatoon. Thanks, Doug

Hi All - I'm having a struggle finding a length of flex hose to replace my air vent to blower hose. Its 4.5 inches/115 mm wide - I guess it must be a real oddball size in North America.
