This may not be the right spot so mods move if need be:
I work on TDI’s and VW’s ALOT, and VW vacuum line sucks! I would like to keep on hand a spool of VW most common hose:
3mm or 1/8
5mm or 3/16
I would like it to have a decent wall thickness as this will be hose for a turbo and dont want it crushing. Is there some place either local or online that I can buy a spool? Silicon is preferred but rubber would be fine as well…
thanks

You can check [www.mcmaster.com](http://www.mcmaster.com) for general pricing, then look locally if you want…
Mcmaster may cost more for most things, but it’s sometimes worth it when you order a part @ 4:30 pm and get it by lunchtime the next day.
