Largest at Ace was 1.5". Ill look at Lowes and a smaller store here too. I think 2" would be great, but 1.5" seems small.

Menards is where I found the 2". My only concern is how much it may choke it down when it is flattened. I don't think it will collapse it seems fairly rigid.

I looked at Lowes and all they had was 1.5" too. I've got another place to look and I may have to check online. I think 2" would be fine, just not 100%. I sent messages to Joey and CP and I'll see what they think.

I found 3", black on Amazon for $160 for 25'. I'd be willing to sell it per set. I'd just measure what I needed and then cut to length and sell per foot and actual shipping. I'd sell at cost. I'd be pleased with 3", no worry about loss of flow.

Thoughts?

That one is routed same as eBay one. Sooner or later I plan on heating the bed release and bending it out a bit so it'll slide between it and seat. That's a rub point for mine.

Well this guy made it work...so I don't see why we couldn't. From Amazon that would be roughly 6.50 a ft and just eyeballing it I'd think 6 foot would do it. Fittings and all you'd be in at 1/4 of what the eBay one is.

Guys I installed this 2" flex pvc on my machine about a year ago. I was selling the some kits I put together at one point. Check out my page I have bunch of pictures of my install to get ideas off of. Btw I didn't notice any airflow issues it's only two bends and they are not that sharp. Be sure and secure the hose near the factory elbow. Don't let the elbow support it. It will work its way loose.

So with the 2" you didn't have to flatten it out to fit between seat and bed?

6.50 /ft !!! You're getting hosed.
I cant remember what my cost on that is but less than half. And that's canadian dollars.
You might want to check a local pond supplier if you want to save a couple bucks.

No I didn't have flatten it out. It rubs a slight bit but doesn't stop Bed from opening or closing

Hosed literally:D I'll check around but even at that price it would be 150 cheaper than the route I was thinking about. Thanks.

I can't get 3" locally, so for 3" looks like the Amazon route. I don't mind being the front man IF we can get more than just the 2 of us. What are your thoughts @GlockMeister?

If we could get 2 more. I've got a couple more places local I want to check out tomorrow. After that I can give you a solid answer.
