I think it might be cheaper to go through the UK. I bought mine for less from there compared to AG and mine was the original set (not that it really matters anyway)

Autogeek has some great prices on the foam cannon with shampoo sample to.. I beleive proper auto care and other vendors have around the same prices.. 60-130 like mention earlier..

This can be used with a regular hose right.. not a pressure washer?

For those interested, I found a place to get a foam lance for cheap!

http://www.pwmall.com/p-139789-adjus...-up-to-20.aspx

If you have a Karcher you can get the adapter here:

http://www.pressureparts.com/KA-CPEA...t-4762061.aspx

This adapter and gun is going to need a 1/4 MPT x 22mm twist coupler to make it complete.

$6.96
$53.10
$4.00
=
$64.05!!! (this is before shipping)

In comparious to AG: $119.99!!

Im awaiting my stuff to arrive to piece together, but form the specs i was given and my knowledge of fittings i think i bought the right adapters and pieces for it to work!
