All the spares sites haven’t had air hose/duct in stock for over a year at this point. Does anyone know where you can get something suitable ? Just a straight run of duct from the front panel to the air box, nothing fancy. I don’t need the wire wrapped stuff, just regular plastic duct, does anyone know where you can buy it ?

Generic race car air duct tube will work although I can remember off the top of my head what size is required. https://www.demon-tw...ng-hose-243484/

Original spec ones are available here though. https://www.catmint....rko6poosp883ud3

I got mine from Mini Spares - looks like they're still in stock.

 yeah, I was more so looking for the plastic duct than the wire stuff due to cost.

I’ve got the original wire over rubber in my Mk1, it might look right, but it’s it’s a massive pain in the bum as it doesn’t flex very well and readily slips off, I’d get the flexible stuff, esp if it’s cheaper.

Also why is this in the forum section?

Mmm yes, wrong section.

 

Anyway, I got one similar to this from the this company on Ebay a few years ago.  You need the 83mm/ 3-1/4 inch size.
