Silicon tubing haha, thats not the worst I've heard actually - someone mentioned they suspected another builder of using garden hose!

you want some of the proper stuff from CBS/merlin.

It comes with a certificate of conformity that IVA man likes to see.

You can download a certificate from Merlin website I think
Here, halfway down the page

Do you have a part number for the Fiat m/c? I'm considering a change myself, but there are so many different ones available that I'm having difficulty identifying the correct one which will be as direct a replacement for the Sierra one as possible.
