Unless they're less then a month old...Well you are at it, replace the lower passenger heater hose as well. It's a pain to get to with the shroud in place. And be sure to use high-quality hose clamps. The generic clamps sold at auto parts stores suck.

Any local speed shop can get them for you. Other then that, Summit Racing generally carries them.
