i have PM'd ya pal. will double check when i go out in a bit. one goes to the heater matrix and one back to the coolant galley.

Its just getting it the right way, as you wont get any heat if you do it wrong (as i did at first). Also, when you put them on, put a big bead of sealant around the alloy, as mine have persisted in leaking a little bit...so i would chuck some universal blue on there to give a seal under the hose clip. :thumbs:
