im about to replace some vac. hoses under my hood, and decided to go for colored ones. i hear that silicone hoses are a good choice.
i checked ebay, and my question is are they reliable? i mean im not running any serious mods, just headers and an intake on a stock 5s. can i trust these ebay silicone hoses? i also need dimensions of which to get ? 4mm? 5mm? 1/4? if ur about to ask: "what hoses are u looking to replace?" answer: im looking to replace as many simple hoses as i can without really any difficulty so -------------------- For Sale:OEM tail lights - make offer

Yes most of them are 4mm. There are some that are bigger. Those are technically called vacuum hoses but somewhat not. For example the ICV hose is 6mm on one end and 4mm on the other if I remember correctly.
I just ordered pink 4mm silicon vacuum hoses for my car with 2mm thickness. I hope these are good. -------------------- ![]() |
