Does anyone know where I can find some RED Cloth Braided Vacuum/Breather Hose?? I can't find any anywhere....
I saw some on a mate's European 914 2 litre and not sure if from the factory but certainly makes a stock engine bay look a bit more pecial on my 1.7... |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) ...that kit is a good quick-n-easy way to go. IIRC some were green-ish too.
Some will also bleach & dye the fabric themselves too. |

I just received a 2.0 vacuum kit from AA and they didn't include the red ones either. I just took the original red ones off my 73, and they were toast.
