    & yes Sue, you can get it in PURPLE ... but not in pink ... I went conservative though & got black.
    haven't kept up on this thread, so missed your post brutter T….but, funny you should mention this as I've had it on my ebay "watch list" for about a year now, not quite knowing what to do with it, or exactly how it worked.

    I recall Dub had a catch canister, but since my consumption is so minimal, and only on prolonged highway driving,
    I thought it may be kind of useless….oh wait, I have MANY USELESS MODS, that shouldn't deter me!
    And it will MATCH my brake calipers - how kool is that!! - - -

    Maybe we can make it the 2014 Moab install project on me ride!

    Easy Peezy install. Took all of ... 15 minutes (not counting the trip to parts store for a replacement PCV grommet & extra hose. I think it took me more time to decide where to mount it than it did to install it.

    I'd say that probably 90% of peeps that install them do it just for the bling in their engine compartment (as opposed to 'needing' it). Most of the advertisement hype is just that ... hype. If you need to get rid of the PCV though, it's a good option.
