Bags can be a real PITA, I had them on my VIbe, 1 of the main reasons I got rid of it.

What do you base this statement on? I've had an air system on the truck in my sig for almost 10 years and there's been nothing PITA about them.

This may be true in your case as I have heard from others in theirs, I'm just saying, IN MY CASE, I bought a used system, had a buddy help me install it, had a lot of problems due to install error, then had a lot of problems after, both with the system and the car after the system was installed. A lot of my problems were probably due to the fact it was a used system, and moreso the fact it was installed by 2 people who were not quite sure what they were doing. As far as the mechanical failures I had with the bags themselves, as far as I can see it is only the fault of the system parts themselves. If you buy a new system and have it professionally installed by competent people I am sure it will be a good experience, just keep that in mind!

I've seen bagged discusions go around a couple of times. Those of you that have already done it or you using a generic kit that you mod to fit the HHR? I know when SoCal was running his store he designed a compressor to fit in the spare tire compartment but, I can't find this anywhere else, anyone have any ideas where to get it?
