tip for you, have a bowl of boiling water to soften the ends of the hose - they will go on 100 times easier.


There's a right way, a wrong way and there's Lukes way
Essentially the WRONG way but QUICKER!

Re attach them to the car using jubilee clips not the OEM hose clamps. Not sure if the jubilee clips are supplied with these.

Agree with ScottyBoy about the jubilee clips. Other than that its pritty straight forward but be prepared for some chunks out your hands....... its not the most spacious of engine bays !!!!
