Personally I feel the "kits" are overpriced @ $80-90. Just sell me the grommets for a decent price and I'll supply my own line and fuel injection clamps. The only one that I think is close to being fairly priced is the Van-cafe one. It at least comes with all the fuel line to the firewall and the fuel injector seals for $65. http://www.van-cafe.com/home/van/page_499 To compare: http://busdepot.com/details.jsp?partnumber=TANKKIT1 http://gowesty.com/ec_view_details.php?id=3618&category_id=&category_parent_id= As an added bonus us Canadians get screwed at the border again! Grrrr.
