I normally chop the existing one from the doner car down mate, so if you aint got a doner, you need a Cav or astra one :)

I used a standard nova one, just had to cut down one end so that its not kinked when fitted

Nova 1.2/1.3 one fits, bit of a bodge though imo because its a loose fit on the thermostat housing, meaning it needs uber clampage to get it to seal.

I just used a Nova one. I just choped a bit off of the end and hey presto perfect fit.

Same with the halfords jobie. Its flexable so is universal fit. There only about 4 quid. I used one on my Calibra LET conversion:thumb:
