Hi all, Am looking to replace some of the present rubber coolant hoses with stainless braided options. Does anyone know the internal/external diameters of those fitted?

2011 Plus 4 (Marty) Don’t do it Braided hose are too stiff to use as coolant lines, you don’t need the pressure capacity and you’ll end up breaking anything plastic that the hose fits onto Simon @ Sifab.co.uk Sifabtemporary @gmail.com

Silicon hoses would be a good option.

2011 Plus 4 (Marty) John If you carry out a Google search, you’ll see plenty of suppliers. I used Demon Tweeks, but that was 15 years ago!

Nostalgiajohn ..... Demon Tweeks does a range of silicone hose in various colours .... including 'classic black' to save your underbonnet looking like a chav's birthday treat !  This will be available elsewhere as well, of course. K Ps Budster posted while I was typing

Have a look at Roose Motorsport. Roose MotorsportPaul Roose is very helpful and they do many different colours. I've just finished re-plumbing my 2 Litre Zetec conversion which needed some non standard hoses and I went for OEM Black which is matt black to match an "old car" look. Roose are still manufacturing albeit at a reduced capacity but give them a try. No connection, just a very happy customer.
