    If you struggle with these guys\want more colour options, I deal with a company that doesn't currently do mk1 hoses but will make some up if a certain number of people (I'll have to find how many they would need).

    They offer them in Blue - Red - Purple - Yellow - Green - Black-Orange

    Just another thought for you if you wanted more colours.

    Yep they are UK based,

    Shall drop them a mail\ give them a call and see what they say.
    I might need to send a set pipes off to them so they can price it up, shall see if I have a full set to send in my box of pipes.

    Oh and Vyizis, they do Vacuum piping in Blue, red, yellow and black.

    I think that if going to the effort of getting a kit sorted then the full colours options would be far better (esp seeing how many people would want red too i guess..., and glad they have orange )

    I will keep an eye out for your updates

    Well I've emailed them but my contact didn't make it in today (something about snow apparently ). They know my request now and hopefully will get back to me asap.

    Oh this company also supply different types of clamp, the silicon tape in different colours, reducers, angles, bends. So anything custome we could possibly do as well. They also have the bulge pipes like those used on the SC's etc.

    I've only just come accross this topic but I'd also be very interested, but only if there was a choice of colours I'm afraid.

    Re: Gauging Interest Full silicon radiator Hose Kits for the Mk1

    Ok, bit of news today.

    The guy I deal with will do the hoses happily.
    However he can't give me a price until he's had the original pipes to see what is needed.
    I've got to dig out the OE hoses (don't really want to rip them off my car.

    Once they have them and have given the price we will need between 10-15 people in on it before they will make the silicon copies.

    After that first batch tho they won't have a minimum order, its just to make it worth thier while to set up the tooling.

    Doesn't matter the colour, the 10-15 sets is just to get the numbers to make up the tooling.

    Just one question....

    Does anyone have a complete set of hoses already off thier car that they could spare, if not no problem I'll dig around my hose boxes to work out the set
