Does anyone know the I.D/size of the hose that runs across the front from the rad next to the cap to the overflow?

Don't want to buy the whole kit as I've already got top and bottom rad hose in blue and just want to replace this one in blue also.

Thanks.

Car is not used during the week and stays at my parents house until the weekend, just completely forgot to measure it to order it today.

Thanks for the reply!

I've ordered 3,6 and 8mm just to be on the safe side and all cost less than £8 lol I'm assuming the pipes will be the same for the overflow from evo 4-8?

Yeah i should imaging and now thinking of it the ID of the overflow pipe on the expansion tank is about 8MM as i have fitted the samco hose on the inside of the flange. 6mm will stretch over the entry part of it.

Won't hurt to have extra sizes, sure ill find something to use it on! Plus I've not even spent £10 on them so I'm not exactly out of pocket lol
