Any one with experience of these (good or bad?)
Seem quite good value with no premium (other than a long wait) for more obscure colours.
Used them for my car all good, mine are black as blue are chav especially on an impreza engine it may be worth contacting eddie 99 as well as he started stocking silicone hoses as well.
Thanks, I saw eddies post but he only does blue and im after orange.
Try Ash hoses

I have a discount code somewhere i'll dig it out
Yeah, had a look at them as you mentioned the name at the weekend, sadly they double the price for the special colours, which is a shame.
I have some orange hoses from GBS in my garage I won't be home till Wednesday night and will look to see whats there if you can wait
The RD hoses are good value.
My whole car is done with them and they were great.
The only niggle is true of all silicon hoses, in that, you must fit the exact radius, as bending them even slightly over the manufactured radius
causes them to collapse inward.

I've used a bit of flexible pipe which are pretty good as per the link 32mm 1 1/4"' Silicone Flexible Flexi Wire Hose - Silicon Rubber Coolant Radiator
£50 for 1 metre of the orange flexi!
Sadly its not flexible enough to kink as tight as I need it to, but that stuff me be useful to link other areas (18mm bypass pipe, and top rad hose to
