Default Scion Tc Hose Swap.

First off, if this is in the wrong area please move it. Also, I used the search to try and find something about this but I didnt see much of anything.
Does anyone know where i can buy a complete hose swap kit? I changed my coolant hoses to blue Samco hoses but i'm interested in doing all the hoses in my engine bay. If not, does anyone know the hose sizes so I can order all the hoses for it, or somewhere that I can find the sizes for it? Thanks guys.

"all the hoses" probably won't be possible. Aside from the coolant hoses, the most visible hoses in the tC's engine bay are the suction/discharge lines going to/from the a/c compressor. These are specially constructed assemblies that require a reinforced rubber hose, of which 99.99% of the world's supply is black. You might be able to find silicone tubing to replace smaller lines such as the hose to the overflow tank, but to do absolutely every hose in the engine bay is going to be just about impossible.

Just get a sleeving kit like the ones from TechFlex and cover all of the hoses. No sense in replacing them while they're perfectly good.

Yes I did realize the more visible ones were the ac hoses but thoes I wasnt too worried about... I was tgihnking more like the overflow hose and the vacuum hoses in the engine bay.
