ahhhh maybe my question wasn't as dumb as I thought. Thanks for the feedback I can't imagine the CS inserts having this so I better stay away from them. I can see all the pressure building up from the water and those little holes can't handle it and shooting my headlights out the front of my car!!!! :confused:
