Radiator Hoses

Hey guys, i was wondering if any one of ya'll have pix of the upper and lower radiator hoses. I'm asking because on my 6th gen, i am replacing the radiator so i might as well do the hoses as well. I was looking for silicone hoses and i have so far found 2 companies that make a kit, Samco and OBX. Samco lists it as 02-05 VQ35 while OBX lists them as 02-03 and 04-08. TIA!

If you use silicone hoses, be cautious, they are very slippery and prone to coming off, especially the top one. Use hairspray and spray the fitting and the inside of the hose before you put it on, to help glue it in place.

I finally got rid of the top one and went OEM after it blew off the third time.

These are pretty cool, come int 4 colors
