Default Killerglass install?

Has anyone bought/installed one of these glass radiator hoses?? I just got one and I am pretty nervous on installing it myself, was just curious to whether anyone has already got one... Thanks!

I have seen them on a car and they look awesome. Let us know if you install what it is like.

from what i understand, it's no different than installing a regular upper hose, other than the fact that the killer glass has rubber couplings to mate with the mounting points, and then there is the issue of connecting the LED leads to the power source. should be pretty easy.

If you don't have an intake, you will probably be looking at removing the stock air box in order to reach the engine hose mount point. that's really no bigge eiter, adn if you are in that boat it's a GREAT time to do an intake

Ya, believe it or not, I also have an intake sitting here waiting to be installed along with my killer glass, so it will be a 2 birds with one stone.

yeah, you will have fun. it's a great time to do the intake. It's also a great tiem to replace the other hoses with silicon (samco, perrin, obx)

I never removed my hose to install mine. I just removed my intake, cut the hose where I wanted the Killerglass, with the gap being slightly smaller than the glass installed. I did drain the radiator of some of the coolent to make the hose empty. I think I took less than 30 mins. total. I have the Blitz intake which comes out quick and already had lighting uner the hood so that made mine ordeal easier.
