spa nozzle outlets

Could someone please show me their spa nozzle outlet setup on there closed loop. I am contemplating these for my closed loop on a 90 gal tank. Not sure of their paticular set up. But I really like the sounds of them. PLease also include any info you can. Thanks in advance.

I won't be able to get a pic until Mon. I like the low profile of the units, they are great for a tight fit. However, you cannot direct the flow as much as it would seem. Also, the actual bulkhead itself is kinda weak. I will be replumbinng my closed loop soon to swap them out...

What do you intend to switch to? And what do you mean by a little weak?

From what I've heard about them, the bulkheads are really thin and flimsy. You can use them, just make sure there isn't a lot of pull on them from the plumbing.

I'm switching to sch. 40 bulkheads with loc-line. I need to be able to direct the flow a little better, and I'm just a little nervous about the quality of the spa nozzles.
