Coolant Pipes

I am looking to replace my coolant pipes in the engine bay. Where is the best place to buy a kit ?

Fit a PRT at the same time, that way you're already getting some of the hoses replaced anyway?

For the rest, I think eliseparts sells individual hoses or whole kits. Lotus price will probably be silly. Obviously a whole load of these pipes are common to other K-series installations, so a motor factors can probably provide replacements for those (but these will be standard rubber hoses, not silicone shiny blue ones).

Cheers,
Robin

Cheers for that info Robin. I had checked on line, and some of the pricesare expensive. £200.00 vat + postage. I may just stick with the plain ones.
