I think this is the issue a lot of people will run into more and more. The factory stuff is all brittle 40 year old plastics that can't be easily replaced. If a previous owner ditched this stuff, you're pretty much hosed.

I'm really glad Jonny is pushing new tech for our cars, and I don't doubt that his stuff is engineered really well, but it's a spicy $$$ bill for sure. It's a bit maddening you can get an entire modern system for a classic Mustang for less than half of a CR system.
