Coolant Reservoir Tube? Where to buy?

Where can I buy just the coolant reservoir tube for the 4th gens? Mine like most is starting to corrode. I have a new bottle, but I cannot find the tube being offered anywhere. Where can I get a new one?

Thanks

Brad

Come on guys, I know Im not the only person that has ever needed to replace this tube.

Only thing I could think of is trying to bend a tube to replace it. Brake line or something.

I am not sure where to get the tube....maybe a salvage yard? I do think the idea of bending some brake line to fit is a good one.

Of course you are not and won't be the last. I got mine before they were recently discontinued. I guess you will have to get creative.

so they are discontinued? I figured that some Chinese aftermarket company would make a replacement.

Only problem with used ones are finding ones that arent corroded.

Either of these guys should be able to help. At most they will ask for an original so they can make the pattern for it if they already don't have it.
