Went to change upper heater hose and the pipe snapped! I got lucky...there was enough to pull the firewall grommet out and push the new hose on and use a squeeze clamp....i ran it for 20 minutes heat on anf off and dry as a bone...i called the dealer to check the price of the pipe...they want $40 bucks a piece! So guess ill be hitting the pull a part tomorrow...

 

Just buy the part new IMO.
Used will snap just the same as your 15+ year old part did.

There's a YouTube video showing the replacement of the plastic elbow.

I would save and buy both just to get them done at the same time if that's an option at all.
