I want to get a waterjet, but there isn't much I know about them. I don't need it to be huge, unless they're cheaper then I think. I'd like to get the biggest I can at a resonable price. But I have no idea how much waterjet's are going for so I don't know what a resonable price is. I also know there are a bunch of different kinds and brands but I am not sure which is best.

Any help/knowledge would be great.

You have to cut the plastic tabs off from the backside of the grill. I used a combination of dikes and razor knife.
