What a lot of people do is cut out the small fittings for the larger fittings. I used the gasket as a template and marked the pool and used an xacto knife to cut the pool where the old fitting are. For the second suction line you can cap what's there or get another intex fitting or standard...

If your SWG is a couple years old it is probably in need of replacement cell. I was having the same problem and had to replace the cell. They only seem to last me 2-3 yrs. On my model the cell wasn't available and I took a chance with one from a newer model. The cell was the same size but...

If you can't find the original parts I would think that if you have 24 legs you should be able to use newer parts from the same type pool. Look at THIS parts list. You would need 3,4,5, and 8 in the parts breakdown. I would take the chance and see if they could work for you. If not you...

You could use this type of EDGING, it would go around the pool and over the vinyl for the legs.

I would go with something like the CIPU one you linked to. That way you can use standard above ground pool stuff and not the intex/bestway stuff that doesn't work with the standard accessories.

This is what I did, easy to find parts at your local hardware store.

I used DG Decomposed Granite where I needed to bring the pavers back up and to level them if I dug too deep. Worked great.

Please keep us updated on how it works.

On our 15' above ground I put a 90* elbow on my return and point it a little down so it still has good circular flow and also helps keep the bottom water going a little also. It seems to work for us, if I ever change it I might try a 45* elbow to see how that works because I have the eyeball...

It looks like the light has a momentary switch to turn it on and not a physical on off switch. If that is the case then it won't turn it on only off.

Looks like you will have no problem, I use a sharp exacto knife to cut mine and it's like butter.

It's a easy process once you have the new returns. What I do is use the new gaskets to trace the hole on the outside of the pool where it's reinforced. You can do this without draining the pool you will just need a helper. Have the helper inside the pool with a plastic bowl or small bucket...
