It really is glass, I couldn't belive it either when the hubby got it. Trust me its a trip to see the coolant flow throgh it, plus the LED attached to it adds a great effect.

It's pretty neat, but way too showy for my liking. Since it's real glass I hope it never gets broken somehow . That would be very bad.

Ponta and Keith: the LED was wired strait to the battery for that shot, but it is now set up on a switch that goes off the battery for easy on and off during shows or just showing off with out having to turn the car on.J_to _Envy: that glass peice was really thick and the video that i saw on the web sight they hammered a nail with it then ran it over with an F250, I was sold after that.... now what i was more worried was the connections of the glass to the rubber hose but that went out the window when i saw that it was a heat shrinking piece that is said to get tighter every use and is made of a hich grade plastic
