Default Boost Gauge Vac Line... where can I buy this??

I know most boost gauges come with the small white vac line, but when I bought mine off another HT member... I only got the gauge. Does anybody know where I can buy this VAC line? Or who has one laying around that they want to sell? It's gotta be at least 5-6 ft long.

Are there any other lines I can use instead of the white plastic lines?

I've already tried OSH and HomeDepot, so don't tell me to go there.

i bought some from AutoZone. they sell it as part of a 'gauge installation kit' . costs around 4-5 dollars if i remember correctly. if you can't find it there, im pretty sure that any parts house carries it.

Is it a behind the counter type of package, or do you have to just go look for it in the isles ?

if none of your local stores have it go to http://www.summitracing.com and search for ATM 3226. Summit has a lot of their stuff coming out of Nevada and it only takes 2 days for stuff to get from there to San Fran via Fedex ground. ATM 3222 is only 6ft long, whie 3226 is 12 feet long. but I think it's a good idea to have the extra line in case you ever need it.

You can always do what I did and ditch that little plastic line all together, and just run a reg vac line. I sall a better more responsive gauge by doing this.

I have a complete unopened guage installation kit, with the exact same kind of vaccum line that came with my autometer boost guage, its made by VDO and I got it at napa a while ago. It comes with a bunch of brass fittings and crap too. If you cant find one Ill give it to you for $15 shipped, I think it cost like $20 new.
