I got em from SFS performance in Luton. They done me a free set in blue, but i wanted purple, so they set me another set free I sold the blue ones.
They do loads of colour though, Rob had a blue set (White Corsa, 17" chromes) as did Dave Harwood. There cheaper than Samco by miles too.

Oh, also, Turbo Chris on Mig does silicone hoses in loads of colours now. But he charges bloody loads for them. But i'f u've got the money.
He's got a post in the classifieds on Mig, been about for ages. He does them for 2.0litre Corsa and even 2.0litre turbo (as well as the standard corsa applications).

Not on vauxhall engines though. They work sh1te with induction kits and work very well with sealed units (hence why most vauxhall lovers who want power keep the airbox).
Well, just fitted the header tank, looks a little out of place though due to hoses, cable etc looking tatty. But, will look much better when everything else i want is in there, and u've gotta start somewhere
