Has anyone bought and installed either of these kits? Any comments?

How come the hoses look so much different even though they are both supposed to be for R50?

Is this about what I should be expecting to pay?? Seems like there are a lot more offerings for R53 hose kits than for the R50. Mine is a manual transmission, 2006.

Thanks for any feedback.

 

Going to move you the Gen1 Stock Problems/Issues area, should get more views there.

 

Thanks.

WMW uses the same picture for both sets.

DT shows both sets.

 

Yeah we don't sell many R50 kits so our pic is of the R53 set, but we of course would send you the R50 kit when you order it.

They are very good kits

 

Well, there it is, order confirmation on my kit! It didn't say anything about clamps, is that something most of you replace at the same time when doing the hoses? Thanks for any additional advice!

Installed the OutMotoring hose kit today. 2 of the 5 hoses weren't even for the cooling system, they were for the vacuum system. Kit was missing hose to overflow reservoir and all of the heater core hoses, which, as it turned out, were the ones most in need of replacement. A ton of work to install, took us nearly 5 hours, including time spent to fetch missing hoses.
