top si radiator hose doesnt fit b16.
Well. I went to autozone and got top and bottom radiator hoses for my b16. I got 99 si hoses. The botom fits pretty well, but the top is too short. What could i do? Could I cut my old 1.5l bottom hose to fit the top?

Check out ebay as well:
I kno that the mods don't allow ebay links but this link is not to a specivic item, rather it is a search link that should remain functional after time.

. Cool. I forgot about ebay. I checked out autozone, I usually don't buy stuff from there other than oe type replacements. They had a system like those hoses, but it was 15.99$ I think. I just don't trust it. Thanks a lot for the link.

I had that same issue when I was doing the radiator hoses on my eg/b16
