Default anyone know of Red vacuumn lines

I tried searching but did not find any mention of a source for vacuum lines in colors. I would like to change mine out with Red to match the car color for the visual effect and also to replace the aging lines. How many different sizes are needed?
I know I have seen and read about them here on the listings but can not find the reference. I tried google search but only found one source.
Thanks

Just one size is needed for the vac lines. I bought the LR package (silicon hose, t-connectors) and they worked great and had all the connections needed.

Thanks for the information. They all seem like an improvement over the original material.

They are an improvement, the big downside however is they kink very easily if you do not watch the routing. Cut each piece of line a little longer than the original.

I have installed the Lindsey lines on several cars - they are nice because they have thick sidewalls and are hard to kink.

The lines I got from Lindsey are black, but they were flimsier than I expected. The sidewalls feel thick, but are very soft. So far no problems, but I was a bit surprised when i got them.

Does the LR kit only come w/ 3 T's? Then again, I can't think of why one would need any at all, if not for possible replacement of the OE units.

Did you honestly just say that? Immaturity is a funny thing to behold.

Next time you have a thought, let it go.
