also in the pics they appear to be kinking at the bends...

tbh id get proper stuff for the car, which is designed for it, not the cheap knock-offs like that

Yeah, but those hoses mentioned are NOT vacuum hoses. A coolant hose needs a coolant hose to replace it a vac one will be too small!

They are most probably expensive as it will be a vaux/opel/gm branded part. Again not tried a motorfactors/discount car part seller?

well...1m is not £3 here in Denmark...that's for sure!

Lower coolant hose is £17. Hoses for heater is £22. I know these are not the same as the vacuum hoses...but the prices should illustrate why I consider the hoses from Regal.

I may be wrong here,


But surely if you want vacuum hoses just go to your local motorfactor and buy some i got like 1m for about £3, seems a bit ridiculas spending £30 on hoses!

Hi.

Anyone tried the universal hose kit from Regal?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Regals-Ultimate-10M-Hose-Kit-RED_W0QQitemZ180019648804QQihZ008QQcategoryZ72205QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItem

Are they hot or not? Can they be used for all vacuum hoses in a Corsa? Can they be used for hoses for the coolant reservoir?

Cheers,
