heater hose question

Can you buy the heater hose that is on the turbo side that goes into the firewall to the heatercore at like advance autoparts? I figure I might have to get this from Malloy or something. Mine is definetly split and almost overheated my car, I hit 110 C on the pfc but I know thats not to bad just to hot for me.

thanks guys

Yes, you can.

However, the stock lines are preformed with the proper curves. If you try to run standard lines in the same stock locations, you will end up kinking some of the bends (I tried it and ended up ordering OEM lines).

If you do some re-routing, you can make the bends less severe or you see if you can find preformed hoses at the auto store which much work as well.

if you would have ordered the OEM from Ray yesterday, you would have had the hose tomorrow. As Majik said, AAP probably has the right diameter, but you'll have to slinky it.
