'New ones'? Mine are around a 2-3 years old. Need to replace the i/c to throttlebody hose. Want to replace it with like-for-like as it has enough flex to enable easier fitting.
Didnt want to go too rigid. The OE one for example doesnt fit because of this.
The ones that are on flea-bay are 5-ply.

Bob, as you know i bought mine about 6 months ago, just when the 3 went to 5ply.
get it warm and it will 'just' squeeze in there somehow...
