I received the AOS from Pelican Parts today, amazingly quick delivery. I replaced the AOS in about 1 1/2 hours... I'm getting pretty good at replacing those things.

Maybe you can add to your 300K and drive on up to The Great White North when my AOS needs replacing. It is fine now but I'm sure it will start to go eventually and it is not a job I'm looking forward to.

Do you plan on replacing it yourself? If so send me a personal message with your phone number when you are ready to do it and I can provide some guidance and advise.

The AOS is fine for now but I will keep you in mind when the time comes. Thanks.

So out of curiosity I had a look at the AOS for your car. It appears the accordion hose and pinch connections have been eliminated and are now slip-on rubber hose and clamps?

Nope, it has the accordion hose and spring clamps. I use a clamp tool similar to this:
