Once again I have to say, Never buy anything of someone who can't spell. What numpty takes photos in bright sun then in shadow which don't do anything whatsoever to show off the car. I guess it hides a host of imperfections though?

Air con pipes are still present too !

Heated seat switches as well.

My point is if you'll bodge that, what else will you bodge?

That coolant pipe is a pain to get right if your keeping AC... hence mine, looks better, but still has more joints than i would like.

The original issue with a stock 620ti pipe is this.

Looks pretty tidy that Dan.

Thanks

It works ok, just wish there was not so many connections, but as with any conversion, some things you have to compromise on.

I wonder how much it would cost to get that pipe made in silicone, and if there would be a market for them.

Would be a great idea, cost depending of course.

I went a different route on my maestro.
I used the top thermostat housing from an A+ engine as the main outlet faces foward and the overflow outlet is verticle so can go in any direction.
The bolt holes needed enlarging slightly to line up.
