Default Need an A/C hose for a 3.2 Carrera

Hi Guys,
Does anyone have the super long airconditioning hose from the compressor that goes all the way down the LH side of the car under the LH front guard to the condenser/sub cooler at the front of the car?
I thought there may be some lying around from stripped out cars. I mainly need it to get the correct size to get a new one made up as mine is gone.

Cut up an old garden hose and run it in place of your A/C hose. When you have it sized to where you want it, bring that to your local hydraulic supply house and have them fabricate the correct hose based on your "template".

or you can call Rennaire or Griffiths and they will have the hose in stock in an upgraded barrier hose that wont leak. Rennaire only charges $300 for the hose kit that will do all the hoses in your entire car. they are great guys to talk to and will make any hose you need. they will also sell you single hoses if you dont want the entire kit. I had a hose that didnt seem to be right and they send me a new one.. no questions asked...

Thanks Brad,
I wonder if the hose kit is different between LH and RHD cars?
I will try to email them and check

I have the long hose that runs from rear condensed to front condense. I removed it when adding a new rear fender.condense this summer. It is a barrier hose that was installed by a PO when the A/C was converted to R134. PM me if you want it and we can talk a price.
