1/4 or 5/16 fuel line. I bought a universal connector that you cut to size. I bought 3 feet of line. You can get away easy with 1.5. I wanted plenty of room to get it up as possible.

Is that a check valve on the end of the hose? Or just a coupler so the end doesn't pinch closed?

pretty much wrap two zip ties around the cable attatchment and the little post once the crappy plastic bushing breaks, or put a 1/4" E-ring on it when that plastic piece breaks

Default tinting soft top windows

I like the tinted rear and rear sides but it leaves a weird look on an "all soft" windowed JKU. I found this stuff and will be installing soon to see how it comes out - has anyone tried this stuff?

Here's my mods I've done this week.
Finished:
OEM stubby-$60
Red tow hooks
Red A/C vents

The muffler mod does it sound better? And is it easy?
