Default Connecting 2 different bore hoses

I have, from an existing boost controller, a 2mm i.d. hose running through the bulkhead to the centre console.

I have a new boost gauge which accepts a 4mm hose

You see where this is going...

Where can i source a 2mm to 4mm hose connector?

Do problems (accuracy) arise if you change the diameter at some point from the regulator to the gauge?

I'd rather not have to fit a 4mm and change the existing t-piece (I obviously will if I have to!)

I tried google but nothing coming up

I doubt Halfrauds would help

Any ideas

Go to your local scrap yard and raid as many bits of pipe and connector as you can from the windscreen washers of as many cars as you can!!!

You're bound to come up with something...................... I did!!
