I have had mine since they came out. I just hated the crappie hose that comes with it. Not long enough, always kinks up,etc.
So one day at home depot I see this accessory kit. And I bought it, to use with my vac. A detailing buddie of mine(name withheld):D said he bought it to and it would not work. Something about the end caps were to big or something like that. Well I am here to tell you it does fit and works :awesome:
The OEM hose with the vac

Take #C black locking tab hose adapter. And attach to one end of hose

Unscrew the other end, and remove it. Attach the #D Swivel end hose adapter to it, by screwing it onto the hose end.

Final look, now with a longer reach, and no kinkingIm the MAN
