So when I bought my car the heater core was leaking and was already bypassed. I now need to replace the core itself, but also need the hoses to reconnect it. Does anybody know where I can get just the heater hoses ... like from summit? Maybe silicone even.
Kragen doesn't have them and ford wants $$$$$$$.

Thanks all

Are you talking about the curly hoses by the firewall?

Yes. Kind of "S" shaped I believe.

How much does Ford want for them? I can't think of any place that has it other than Summit. I just dont know if they sell it individually. Have you checked NAPA, Pep Boys, or any other auto parts store?

NAPA actually had both in stock. Got them both for $15.
Ford was asking $22 for one, and $18 for another.

BTW this was my first time at NAPA... didn't know we had one close by.
