B&Q..

Yup, B&Q - fishtank & pond section, plenty of little plastic Y & T's in there in all sorts of dimensions - worked fine on the Nissan & Renault before it.

Granted, not the fanciest, and you might want some shiny metal ones, in which case - Demon Tweeks sell them (at an extortionate price, compared to 10p a pack from B&Q!)

[edit] Damn, beaten to it by Stu..

 s:lol: :lol: s:lol:  That'd be one hell of a bore for a boost guage!

I suppose you could just jam the end of the entire guage in there...  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

Halfords sell then for use with teir windscreen washer pipes, but they are the same thing, we used them on Seans when Jay forgot some of them.

*pretends to be surprised*

Ahem..  s:oops: :oops: s:oops:

Oh yes, I forgot to say - the boost hose is almost certainly going to be 4mm ID.. I'm prepared to be corrected, there, since I've not seen the TTE vac hose, but 4mm fits with the other cars I've owned.
