Fitting Forge Silicone Throttle Body Hose...

Bought the full set of Forge hoses off GNJ on here.
Now, is the throttle body one a PITA to fit or am i just a great big gay bear?
Looked like loads of the injection system and maybe even the front bumper need to come off?

I wouldnt say it was to easy, bit of a pain in the ass, more fiddly, but no need for the front bumper to come off
There is not to much room in round there to get moving, you can do it!

Yes matey, up on axle stands, removed the throttle body pipe, added new rubber hose on & refitted the TB pipe. As far as i remember you would need to remove the DV, if yours is at the front to tighten & Loosen the clip, thats attached to the engine... Just to give easier access.
Hope that helps!
