Default Need Air conditioning hose/pipe

Hey guys,

My aircon hasn't been working for a while, due to a high pressure hose/pipe seal busting. A certain dealer within the Osborne Park area quoted at about $480 for this ...

Please see the images attached, looking for this hose/pipe for a GD 2000 bug eye. I'm hoping to get it cheaper than that price ...

That was without gassing etc. as well ...





Please let me know where I should look for this part, and do I need to get a wrx specialist to fit, OR should any air-con dude be able to do it?

Mrs is preggas, so she's hating the heat and therefore me at the moment ... :P

Cheers guys, I've got the feelers out for the part, now do I need a WRX mechanic to fit it? OR do I just take it to any air con specialist?

Fit it yourself and take it to an auto electrician to get it gassd up. Usually around $150 to get gassed.

No worries, anything tricky to them? Need to get gaskets or seals?
