Silicone coolant hoses ?

Ok so my 01 civic ex needs a head gasket job, doing it next week. Any ways where can I get silicone coolant hoses as a kit for my car ? I have the oem ones but since the head is coming off rather replace em so down the line I don't have to worry about em, any body got a good site or link to get em? All I see is for b motors hoses, thanks

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

I'd use OEM hoses and spring clamps, most can last longer than the cars they are installed on.
JMO, YMMV

Agreed, why **** away money on pretty hoses when the oem ones do just fine and last forever
