I found a way to add a 20X nozzle to the selector. I'm probably going to confuse everyone with the description, I Don't have any pics yet. It requires no drilling, but you have to saw. On the right side of the the selector, saw off the plastic that comes and hangs over the nozzle. Then you can rotate it around so that the holes on the top can be placed at the bottom. I know, that was confuzzling, but I'll post a pic tomorrow.

That's a really bad idea. It will leak out because it cannot fully extend to the nozzle selector. Plus, there's no O-Ring, a necessary requirement for all multiple nozzles.
Whatever music you listen to probably sucks.

It can easily reach to the nozzle selector and the O-ring is still there. Like I said, all you do is saw off one of the sides. You have to see it to really understand it.

I think I get what you're saying. It's almost like taking off the nozzle selector right? It just gives a bunch of space for a more full shot. Get the picture, I'm still a little confused.

I think I get what you mean, your switch would switch between the existing nozzles and nothing which would then be 20x.

These pictures suck but they might help you understand.

These shows the area that I sawed off.

This shows the 5X

Image

This shows the 10X

Image

This shows the 20X

The area I sawed off allows me to rotate the nozzle selector so that the holes that are on the top can be placed on the bottom. The holes that are on the top are the ones that hold the nozzle sector in place.
