Hey Guys,
I remember as a young person actual Service stations
that could fix something, give directions in English and
have a decent ******* magazine in the Mens bathroom.

What I am trying to find is the exhaust exit that colder climate Service
stations used to have. It was a exhaust vent that went through the garage
door. A mechanic (remember those guys?) could start your car inside
and pipe the exhaust thought the vent in the door.

Where can I find the rubber pipe and the vent?

Ok great, thanks for the supply of the hose.
Where do I find the vent/ shutter for the garage door?

I located the rubber hose at a rubber wholesaler - there would be one in every city I guess. It's a heat-resisitant, corrugated, no-crush, collapsible hose(!). I thought I could get something cheaper, but learned the other stuff will melt (exh. is 800F) and isn't collapsible. It was $160.00 for an 11ft section.

I think I would cut a hole in the wall first, as opposed to the door. I think my homeowners association would send me a letter.
