Be sure to buy all of the connectors and the O rings along with the hoses. The aftermarket O rings ands spacers don't play well with the OEM quick connect connectors.

The aftermarket yellow ones all play well together so long as you buy the complete kit.

Thanks. Like everything else, might as well buy it all so I don't start wondering and guessing. At least this isn't as costly as an entire front end.
