Agreed. It's really easy to do if you follow the guide already provided on here. I dont understand why people are so afraid of removing the bumper and enlarging the holes for the tubes. The plastic area where you have to make the space is somewhat of soft plastic. I didn't have a dremel so I resorted to my dinner knife, made two deep cuts one top and one bottom, eat cut about 1" in a seesawing motion, I just reached in barehand and pulled outward toward me and the plastic snapped off creating a bigger hole for the tube to fit thru, repeat the otherside. You can file off the jagged edge to make it look nicer but I didn't since no one but me knows it's there. I also wrapped the AC line with some rubber pieces found around the garage to keep from rubbing.

Edit: of course I don't recommend you guys use my ghetto tectnique, just showing ppl that it's not that bad and it's easy to do.
