Need tips on How to repair broken vacuum hose that connects back of intake
Pulled off the stock intake off my 03. And ended up splitting the vacuum hose which I am guessing is for the ac/heat. Does anyone have any tips on how to repair it? I am thinking maybe a dab of silicone possibly and a zip tie. Just wanted to see if anyone else has a brighter idea. Thanks!

or just use a piece of hose, doesn't have to be a 90 degree ?? just a different size from intake to plastic line !!

that's just a vacuum elbow. many cars use the same size and same 90deg fitting. did you talk to the parts counter at your local dealership? they may have something similar hiding around
