repro heating/cooling vacuum hose retainer

[Randall K.]

Does anyone reproduce heating/cooling vacuum hoses that have the right-angle retainer molded on? I've not found any.

On the other hand, is this ever a judging item if a replacement hose has a clamp instead of the retainer?

Thanks

Randell, I think its safe to say you cannot see those hoses inside the car, the vaccum soruce to the outside of car maybe the only one.

Ive rarely seen those hoses with any problems, maybe the external hoses may catch alittle dry rot after the years.

I am taking that you have a air car.
