Let me know what you find out; I'm about ready to do this to my CF200  suit
also.  The dry glove system that comes on Zeagle drysuits seems to meet our
requirements, but I don't know where they source it from.  Si-Tech maybe?  I
went to Si-Tech's website but couldn't make much sense of it.  Anyone?

Don't bother with the DUI system, as you lose the wrist seal in the process.
Not familiar with the Bare or Viking systems.
