I know these were mentioned a long time ago.

Not sure if anyone ever tried them. Maybe after Christma$$$, I'll order one for the front & see how easy the install is.

The install should take about 2 minutes. Our hose is just squeeze clamped on . My question would be why? Our vent hose comes out way up in the engine bay, and if that is not far enough for you, just add some more hose, you could take it all they way to the roof if you wanted

And if this is an indication of his prices he's very reasonable...

Tail light for $39.99 and he has both.

Talked to this seller today (same guy MH mentioned above).
I bought the roof rack and the driver's interior door handle.
The VX in the yard is really complete with NO impact. LOTS OF GOOD STUFF!!
Doesn't know what's wrong with it.
(I thought maybe it was a blown engine, but he just didn't know).
He mentioned someone already inquired about the rear door, so that may end up already sold.

He seemed like a decent guy. Was really interested in getting familiar with the forum. He really likes the VX and wants to get one for himself. I told him I'd post his contact info here. The ebay listing says SC, but his phone number is NY. I think the yard is actually in SC, not sure, since I couldn't find it on the web, and forgot to ask.

*** He went away TODAY for the holiday, back on Monday. Asked folks to call him next week for parts. ***

Don't see any impact/collision damage.

According to Merlin, all of the cladding is still available new (but you may have to wait 6-8 weeks for it to arrive.

New price on the rear bumper cover is $334 and you could get it with free shipping if you order from Merlin...

Yeah, that's the same seller I posted about in post #520:
The bezel is sold now, but he still has 6 other VX items left.

Im interested in the hitch. Is this price fair and is it easy to install???

[vt_maverick]

His prices on all the small stuff look very fair to me. I think I remember paying about that much when I bought my hitch from Tone directly. The bumper may be a bit overpriced as Mile High noted above, but I wouldn't hesitate to pull the trigger on the hitch.

Just my $.02.

EDIT: Install difficulty depends on how adept you are in the mechanical arts. My understanding (I paid someone to do it) is that you need to remove and cut the bumper, drill 2-4 new holes for the bolts, cut a section out of the bumper reinforcement, and then reattach the cladding. Not too bad, but again it depends on your skill level and what tools you already have at your disposal.
