Off topic a bit, i had a customer call me the other day and ask if i would be interested in fitting a front panel to an Elf, he does not have a panel but mentioned the CATMINT conversion, i had a quick look at his website.

Has anyone used this conversion is it any good ??

I know of people on the Elf and Hornet forum who have done it, it's fiddly but effective from what I've read.

They do as you suggested Rich indeed sell JK's fresh air tube. Thanks again.
