    Do not use stock interiors

    Paid my 26 bucks in return shipping and sent it back. We will see if they give me a refund. I dont think they make their products themselves. Probably why they are not knowledgeable about which parts fit. Anyway done whining.

    I got my order in at Cold hoses. Not sure what to do with the dryer. I cant find a straight though 3/8 dryer with barb fittings. I might use a refrigeration flare dryer and put barb fittings on it, and hope it doesnt leak.
