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? kindasad.gif


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

they look very out of place IMO.

also the larger diameter ones seem to collapse under vacuum


i'd get the 4mm ones.. u can easily stretch them 1mm if u need to lol
