I'm about to replace a few more hoses on my NG900. I was thinking about buying new clamps too.
Dean, are the the new style spring clamps you're referring to something that Saab sells? (And with the old part numbers?) Or do I get these at any general hardware store? How obvious is it, incidentally, to tell the difference in the type of clamp? (Last fall when I bought clamps at my local Ace hardware, I don't recall seeing more than one option for the sizes I needed.)
Thanks,
