Re: upper radiator hose

Why not put in the upper radiator hose of the type of motor that you have in the car and trim to fit?

he posted that his didn't fit. My d15b2 upper radiator hose didn't even fit my jdm d15b when I put it in, and now I have a sohc zc vtec which is still a d16z6 and I had to use the same hose.
