Jim Bowen 1 Posted August 17, 2011 Is it possible to buy a complete set of clips for all the water hoses from anywhere other than VW. I imagine VW overcharge for them, i fitted a set of samco hoses a couple of years back and used jubliee clips, but never been too happy with them and would like to go back to the proper clips.

captainredeye 0 Posted August 17, 2011 I have looked in the past with no luck so resorted to jubilee clips, would of thought a vw main dealer is worth a try! but if you find some let us know where. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KipVR 1 Posted August 17, 2011 Scrap Yard! every time i go to one I take off all the little clips, hose clamps and loom guides plugs etc that i can find off the newer VW's. usually you get them dirt cheap too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
