Hi Cheffy , no your dead right there are quite a few hoses on the v6 that differ ...the "u" shaped head to engine ....and thermostat to steel pipe ....both passenger side are both different....the good news is your main radiator hoses are the same .... just to add the rear heater hose drivers side is also different ,so of the hoses i do, that takes 3 out of the equation .....i cant help with your choice of colour like the guy who wanted pink ..your better off going down the private route ...at the moment i only have black ,blue and red ....if you change your mind about colour give me a shout....e-mail is best ...anyway thanks for your interest

Hmm, its not had any bids.... I doubt it has been designed specifically with the bongo in mind though....

Glad to hear it rob...

That's why i couldn't understand other's having issues obtaining the clips...

I guess it just took a while for all the staff there to get bongo/freda familiar....
If asked, they will supply a stainless steel clip set too,though this would be overkill really for the application.

I have no links but am so grateful to all who carry out research and developement to improve bongos. So far I`ve spent loads on additiions [toys] but the most useful is definetly Haydns COOLANT LOSS ALARM great for peace of mind especially motorway driving for me it`s a must have accesory.
