    I have on my 16v, but the braids have frayed and its looking a bit ropey. Still does the job perfectly well.

    I see on here the majority of people just use normal black rubber hosing.

    I rang up VW and they said they can only order it in stupied amounts, i.e 20 metre rolls.

    Seems a bit excessive, but what about the concours/ standard cars that are totally original?

    May be worth a group buy?

    Who else still uses the original anyway?
