Has anyone bought the Stinger 71/72 Air Grabber setup from them?
What did you think of there quality?
What are the remaining parts needed beside the stock flat hood to finish up a project like this?

You need a complete air grabber switch, with hoses, vaccuum canister that goes on the pas. side inner fender, the hood activator and the bracket that holds it into place and the round plastic clips that hold the hoses in place. You will need to cut the hole in the firewall for the hoses to go through. Because I'm a Mopar nut and willing to lend a hand to fellow Mopar enthusiasts, I can provide a template from an original hood to make the proper cut outs if you so require.
Do you still think that you want an air grabber for your GTX? Give me a shout if you need anymore help.

Can you use a Satellite hood as a base for an airgrabber setup, and just make the appropriate cuts in the hood?
