Hi 8bit!!! Lucky us hey!!! Good pipe mate! Tbh, call it ezee, but i took the hose to a local hardware store and just asked the guy for clips to match the pipes lol took him 2mins to match them up and at 4quid u cant go wrong!!!! Sorrrted!!

Best thing, take the airbox out and that gives u much easier access. No need to go underneath

Hmm ok cool, cheers for the advice. Think I'll get myself a forge 007p valve and panel filter soon so will do the whole lot the first decent Saturday afternoon I get free

No problem, airbox screws out easily, and youll have easy access to the rubber TIP. once its off youll be able to see the TURBO charger, you wont need a jubilee clip for the "pipe onto airbox" as theres already one on there.

good luck

OK nice one. So - i'll need some o-ring/jubilee clips (i'll take the TIP to B&Q and get those), some sort of tool to tighten them (a "flexi-drive"?) and something to remove the old ones? Long-nose pliers?

Been reading on here all afternoon, not seeing a proper, definitive guide that covers the BAM-engine LCRs, lots for the older model cars tho...

Really simple mate me and my gf did mine in about 20 min for the clip around the turbo I used a small rachet, just feel an undo the rest is just even easier
