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,

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!

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.

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?

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
