I've found my pipes and plumbed it all in, using the original hoses. But after proudly showing the wife my handiwork I noticed that I haven't got a connection to the bottom of the expansion tank. On the Sierra it goes to the radiator but my clio rad has only 2 connections not three.
Any ideas ? Cheers Peter

Does anyone know where to buy the Henry Hoover tubing to make the coolant pipes?

Thanks Kev. I should have looked there in the first place. Do you know of an easy and cheap way of beading the ends? Thanks david

If you cant find a beading tool use a plumbers olive on the end of the pipe and solder it on. This stuff http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ALUSOL-ALU...item3f203b68f2 believe it or not will solder ali to brass if you get it clean and use the right flux. If there is any left over its worth having in the workshop for repairing ali casings.

another alternative is thick copper wire wrap around twice and solder on to pipe
