Where can I buy a lower rad hose from?
Need a lower/bottom rad hose for my 99 Turbo. Can't seem to find one, all I want it a normal rubber hose, not silicone.
ebay has none. Plenty of sellers listing the "top" hose, just not the lower one.
Tried Google and looked at a number of parts places, again it's only the top hose listed, not the lower one. What gives?????
Anyone know of any good Subaru online parts suppliers?

Many thanks.
There must be something very fishy with the lower hose. importcarparts are out of stock. But get this, it's £22 ****ing pounds. While the top hose is £6.50!!!!
Camskill are the only other place Google seems to bring up with the part number (seems to be defaulting to US sites otherwise). And they want £25 + shipping.
WTF the world has gone barmy!
At those prices I've bought a silicon upper and lower hose kit off ebay instead, £29.99 shipped.

Just bite the bullet and get Samco or another top brand silicone top and bottom rad hoses, the standard ones are known for failing especially when they're a few years old.
Save yourself the time, hassle and inconvenience of being stuck at the side of the road with steaming hot water p1ssing all over the place.
OOPs just seen your post above, although at that price I doubt they're top quality branded items.
Rolls the dice with fingers crossed.
