Which silicon coolant hose kits
« on: April 02, 2015, 04:04:24 pm »
After a full coolant hose kit for an engine swap, OEM ones a bit tired looking.  I know Forge do a kit but has anyone used these as some silicon kits aren't the best fit? 

Any other Silicon hose kits that anyone can recommend or should I just replace with OEM ?  :happy2:

ive got the full forge hose kit and fits are perfect. hardest bit was getting to them deep inside the engine bay. there may be other kits that are cheaper so worth looking around before buying as there not cheap.
