Braided heater hoses
Has anyone replaced the molded heater hoses with Braided Stainless Steel ones? If so, any tips on this process. I'm considering do this while I have the radiator drained and replacing the radiator hoses with the silicone ones from zzp.

IMO if you have to have the braided look, just buy good molded hoses and just slide over one of those fake stainless sleeve kits to cover it.
The hoses with the pre-installed fake braid are cheap and will probably kink on install. Real AN braided hose will obviously be prohibitively expensive.
