Stole it from the local gas station, Its a self cleaning head for the skimmer keeps the neck clean and gets way more production

Ya, It's the retrofit. I think after all what I've heard from you and some others about the lids, Im glad it turned out the way it did. At least I know it'll work and the tolerances are good. I will however have to modify the locker, I have to cut off 3" for the gravity feed, but it just so happens Im pretty good with acrylic.
