Tried anywhere else? Autobarn, Repco?

Supercheap rarely has Bseries hoses, usually stock load on Ford Holden Toyota etc

Best advice is avoid using the car and buy from jdmyard *next day delivary* or just hunt everywhere for it

thanks, sort of need it quick and have a SuperCheap down the road from me

found this hose on their website

and this post suggesting 5/8" instead of 3/4"

Ohhh thought you were talking about the one that connects to the radiator

Yes that will fit perfectly, I am using that one from Supercheap at the moment in my car.

Not sure how long to get, I just got a metre and cut to size, the remaining will be help out if another hose pops

Remember to buy suitable hose clamps (screw in ones) because my oem ones didnt fit properly (and supercheapauto hoses are pretty thick)

arr cool thanks.

when you say pretty thick, is that a good thing? so you dont recommend to get the clamps from SuperCheap?

yeah its a good thing i guess, looks extra reliable from a perspective view. the main diameter size is perfect, but the rubber thickness is thicker (if that make sense)

sca stock tridon clamps so its pretty good, oem ones don't fit properly

just found the pic, im using 3/4. the other one should fit better i guess, but i had no issues with mine.

Nws let us know how you go, would be great if you could get dimensions for people who get stuck in future

ended up using 5/8" Heater Inlet Hose form SuperCheap + 2x Tridon HS010C 14-27mm clamps

Fitted perfectly under 30 minutes, although seemed the OEM clamps could have worked too

Well there you go. Sorry for the miss info, must be a slightly thinner hose than mine

Thx for updating
