    ive got a mac one that fits, it jsut got a rubber hose that goes all the way down the holes! just wind in the threads with the hose connected, then conncet up the dial at the end! all sorted!

    i wouldnt have thought you would be able to get a decent seal by just twisting the hose though mate ?
