:yesnod:

very easy. use a high speed carbide cutting bit on a dremel. Cuts the cap like a hot knife through soft butter. Use a good high temp epoxy to hold the vacuum T to the cap.

What issue was that? Maybe I can grab one, as I don't currently subscribe.

Works great, easy to install, and the vacuum keeps the Opti dry. Worth the effort. :chevy
