$112?!?!???!?? Ouch! :-( (Did you go back to the dealer?) The air
can hat hold-down bolt is just a carridge bolt which can be had for less
than $1 at any hardware store. One way to lengthen the bolt is to replace
that carridge bolt with a longer one from a hardware store, or bend
up a piece of threaded rod into a sort of "S" shape. Either method
can be done for under 5 bucks easy...
