Default Blue Silicone Hoses

Anyone know of a place with a good deal on a full set (not the 5 piece set) of blue silicone cooling hoses for my '02 coupe?

Edit : I have seen them on several sites, but most are $359-$369 for the set. I'm looking to see if anyone knows of a place with a better price on them. Thanks!

Yes thank you. I have seen them there and several other places, but most all seem to be around $369 for the set. Looking to see if anyone knows of a better deal out there on them.

You could order and cut the hoses with that other website I posted...

Here is one cheaper but only states 97-98 models:

The link you listed is for a 5 piece kit, not a full kit. thanks though.

on the first site, it looks like you have to use a bunch of clamps to piece together those things at the bends, which looks like crap IMO, sorry. Unless I'm missing something there where they have the full kits with bends and such.

LG had the full kit a while back for $199, but I missed out.

Any pics of them installed? How many hoses are there for the C5s? Do the silicone ones hold up or do they discolor? I just installed some on my DRZ400SM but only have a couple hundred miles on it so I'm not sure yet on well the color holds up.
I would want blue or red. maybe we can get LG to do a group buy....

I know I have a lot of the blue hoses left. I would have to check to see what I have in red and black.

When I get to the point of dressing up the engine, I'm debating over a set of silicone hoses or the braided steel. Those look pretty cool as well, however I need to perform a little more research on durability, etc.
