Hey Jesper ,
Hex Rod, well it's made of plastic and can be found at your local hobby shop under the brand name of Plastruct. I has a shape of a hexagon, and can be use for nuts and bolts, and certain car parts.

Hey Joe,
Will you add a little bit about routing because I can probably pick up the techniques easily, but, I never know where they're supposed to go.
I DO know that after a squirrel decides the top of your van's engine is a great place to hang out and vacuum hoses are fun to chew on, I thanked God for my buddy Al with his "what-went-where" knowledge of Chevy 350ci vacuum hose routes!

squirrels!

Thanks, you rock Joe!
