I think the repco one was around the $40 to $50 mark. Maybe around $25 for the upper.

You know I read the title of your thread last day or so here and there and never bothered to check the thread contents. I thought "what tight ar*e would worry about saving a few bux on a radiator hose?"
My curiosity got the better of me so I wondered into this thread to have a gander.:shok: To my surprise / horror / and disgust I find that someone is trying to rip you off blind Benny. I suggest when you get one for 1/2 that quoted price take the receipt back to them and ask to see the manager or even better the proprietor. Show him the receipt and tell him to stick his dik in his radiator hose cause thats all it would be good for. $125 for a new bottom radiator hose for a fkn 12 year old car. WHo ever heard of such a thing.
