Stupid power nozzle question

Kyle, there is an EASY way to do this. If you find a dealer that sells Hoover central vacs, they use standard Hoover Windtunnel PN's, BUT they don't use Hoover's clip wand system; instead, they have the plastic clip on the bottom of the lower wand, but they have a hole at the top to accomodate the buttonlock from the standard upper wand with cord holder that they use with Plastiflex hoses. Just get the dealer to sell you one of these lower CV wands, & then drill a hole above the existing hole to accomodate the buttonlocker on your Kenmore's wand. Then go into Sears, & buy a separate cord, which the lower-line models with the EZ Grip handles but without Quick Release, use. Then, just rewire your Hoover nozzle with the Kenmore cord, & you're done!

Checkrate/Likes I know this is really dumb and amateurish but is there any way someone can think of to get a standard Windtunnel Power Nozzle to fit on a Kenmore vacuum? I know it doesn't seem possible. However i know people have done custom "hacks" in the past. Any ideas? Thanks guys. Kyle
