Why not just use PVC pipe from Home Depot? Get a 10' length of 3/4" or 1" thin-wall for under 2 bucks...

thanks chuck, the pvc was my first thought, just wanted to stay oem if i could. i used some thin wall i had in the garage. made them 12 inches and added caps. they look prettygood. like you ill save money on the little stuff if i can.
