Subject:Re: metal fittings to replace grommet system for hoses on top of gas tank
From:Craig Cowan <phishman068@GMAIL.COM>

I tried fabricating some out of brass on my first set. They were gorgeous, but overkill. 

I have done at least a dozen tanks since with the available replacement parts. They're the right way to go and will last you another 20 years.
