Lower Coolant hose

[Justin]

I'm going to replace my lower coolant hose with the one that doesnt' look like a roller coaster track today.... The problem is, I cannot find the thread that says what car its from!

Can anyone point this thread out, please! My search skills suck and I just waisted 15 minutes trying to find it :\

I believe this is what you're looking for.

That's the one! I JUST found it on SF too.

Lucky for me, Napa has one in stock!

Does the 5m hose work on the stock i/c piping setup?

just got home from workin on the car....

bought the part, and put it in! Defiantly a nicer route than stock

I did have to cut both ends of the hose where I only heard of one end having to be cut. Whatever though, still is a great upgrade, imo.


It also makes the oil filter ALOT easier to access.

Why do you have to cut the ends?
How much did it cost from napa?

Did not fit otherwise. It straightened the bends too much and we all know what happens when you do that :\

It fits just fine now, but like i said....

20 bucks after tax.


pics to come
