Dont trust my inlet hose on my E16SE as they crack like hell and i've had to glue it once already (that worked great but would rather fix it properly)

Does anyone have a link to an eBay listing or somewhere i can get a silicone one to replace the original?

Roose do one for the XE custom flared/bent to fit, wonder if they do one for the 1.6 too

matt, use window bonding sealant, but make sure the pipe is clean as a clean thing first..... also, you should buy every spare pipe you can....it works for me..

Well I want to nip this issue in the bud first time cause decent inlet hoses are thin on the ground these days by the looks of it. I rekon a 60 degree bend of the right diametre each end would do it. Just thought someone might have bought one on ebay and done all the work for me already cause I'm lazy :D

But thanks mowgli, until I source the right silicone pipe I'll get some sealant out. Got some window bonding sealant somewhere too.
