    I was looking at hoses a few days ago, and saw the recommendations on hose kits. Siliconeintakes has kits, I've read both really positive and really negative reviews, never used them myself. Their colored kits seem to all be out of stock with no word of when they will have more...
    Black kit (in stock):

    Others:

    They do seem to preach having thicker walls that do not collapse.

    Not plug and play but close enough imo. Remove oe horn, pos. and neg. wire hookup to oe pos. and ground (solder/splice/dealers choice), drill hole and mount. Of coarse remove grill section and reinstall. Could be done in an hour. I flat blacked mine too because the one I bought was red. @GioGuitarDude has one too.

    Nothing compares to the POWER of adding a millenium falcon sticker to your taco!

    I need a little help. My tailgate handle broke on the inside, but I'm unable to reach the screws on the back side of my tailgate due to the drawer system/ platform in the bed. Any ideas to get the tailgate open for repair?

    Try a couple of tiny screwdrivers and pry back the latches?

    Not even a newer Corellian freighter, like Dash Rendar's Outrider? He claimed the Millennium Falcon was an old pile of junk in comparison...

    This seriously happens to me almost every time I fill up. Then I tell them it has 260k miles haha. But the linex and tires/rims make it look really clean!

    I would hear "Cuánto para el taco ?" on job sites daily when I had my 1st gen. Not a bad problem to have.
