🔴 Mishimoto Silicone Radiator Hose Kit (MMHOSE-FXT-04RD) - Compatible with Subaru Forester XT 2004-2008, Red Review

Looks great works well but can't say the quality justifies the price. If you have the extra cash to make your engine bay look a little prettier then this is for you.

Had to trim the fan cover to allow the lower radiator hose to fit fully. The rest is perfect as expected. The documentation should indicate that it may be necessary to trim the fan shroud.

Delivery was quick. Good product. I just think I should say you need to buy your own clamps. Get ready to spend $20 to get 4 T-Bolt Clips. I give the product 3/5 because they come with a silicone intercooler kit but for some reason they didn't add clamps to that kit. It seems silly to me, especially when you're already spending almost $100 on small silicone tubing.

I bought this for my 2004 Forester XT for insurance. I should have fewer problems in the future. by Mishimoto costs $140. I had to cut the bottom hose about 1/4" short to fit and not kink. (This fits my standard radiator). If you are interested in this hose set it will fit your Forester but will need to be cut to size as described .Standard hoses are only about $20 and if I had to choose again I would settle for a standard hose.In the end this is happening on a car that will see some workloads…
