E-mail here.. speedbleeder@ameritech.net

Ask for your sizes and prices, I have them, but forget the size.

They work great.. just remember when install them, the full length of the threaded part does not go into the hole, so once you feel the resistance change and it becomes harder to tighten, you need to stop. Don't overtighten, cause you'll strip the threads. Push hard on the pedal, and check for leakage every time you're done bleeding to make sure it's closed off.

Oh yeah, they do have an application chart, but no 5g Prelude listed.
I ordered a set last Sunday (on the internet). I did not receive a confirmation, nor I have heard nothing from them, but they did charge my credit card the other day. Every time I call them I get an answering machine and don't leave a message.

???? That is f***ing ridiculous. I hope it's only like that for your rare XR4.
Corey, do your speed bleeders screw in all the way?
