When I do the mod for Ben, I will document the procedure with a How To page on my website and place a link on this thread.

WARNING!!!! DO NOT use automotive heater hose for your "listener"... radiator/heater hoses are impregnated with carbon to mitigate electrolysis in the cooling system... be careful!
