This thread went downhill when people started getting uptight about "how it looks" (the universal hose) and "standards" .

well the original question was:

"why so critical of "universal" flex radiator hoses"..


there was numerous opinions listed.. if you didn't want to see the answer why open the thread? don't think anyone got uptight about anything but maybe you. they look stupid and make it look like stuff was short cut along the way. just the way it is.. if you are ok with that look then so be it.. some are not ok with that but i don't see anyone but you uptight.
