ebay is probably the best place for silicon hose.

to be honest there is no advantage in using silicone compared to rubber as such. THis is coming from someone with all silicone hoses of course...

pirtek are reasonable, but it cost me about 160 quid for the lot.

i think theres a pic in my gallery thing of the cooling setup

If you look at my photo archive in the 'For Sale' folder ( I must update that !) there are a couple of shots of my engine bay that may help a bit.
