Anybody have any pictures of installs of the Pfadt Featherlights using the new long swivel hose connections to the canisters? If so please post or PM.

Having to cut a 2.5" hole in the wheel well is a nerve racking action. I have attached a couple of pics of what I have done so far for the driver front side (similar for the passenger side just no pics), will be adding a cover plate made of the side of a black plastic office trash can (no idea what kind of plastic just has the correct flexibility and thickness). Canisters are installed attached to my Callaway Honker CAI.

Having more difficulty with the rears as I want to install the canisters on the harness bar. So looking for pics of what others have done.

Once you get into race car stuff like this cutting holes is par for the course

I agree. It is really all part of the fun of doing the work. Just looking for a little company in the adventure.

PS> If they had Dry Break Couplers (like others) then the hole would have been much smaller, but then I would have all the downside of the "not so dry" break couplers.

I'll bet you can find a 2.5" rubber grommet to fill the hole if you look hard enough. Drill a hole in the center of it the size of the cannister hose then cut a slit in it to install it. Would look professional and be easy to remove if you had to service the schocks for any reason.

I have a C5 with Penske shocks. I put the rear shock canisters in the two side compartments in the rear tub. I ran some edge trim around the holes just in case the hose rubs. For now, the holes are sealed with black duct tape. I thought about getting some of these but they are kind of spendy.

Got the rears installed, very happy with how it came out.

Excuse the stock seats, this is a dual use street and HPDE car so I have the seats swapped back to stock.

That came out really good Dan! Great job!
