Are the demister vent tubes to suit a Mk2 Cooper S plastic heater available as a reproduction anywhere? If so how exact are they to the original? Or if not available would anybody know where to source some good second hand ones from or are they rare as hens teeth...  Mark |

I may have some in a box somewhere in the shed. I saw 3 of them a few years ago. Are they a convoluted plastic about 40mm diameter? |

Strange how the mk2 got plastic and the clubman GT went back to the cardboard and aluminium tubing. Mk2 2 is very similar to household vacuume pipe isn't it? Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk |

Ok. Makes sense now. Thanks. Now to find kopex in the correct diameter. The tubing is still available if you search hard enough. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk |

Thanks guys for your knowledgeable input. Really appreciated! The year of my MK2 is the same as Simons- 7/70 so it would appear to be the black paper/inner foil type? Thanks Brad, if you have this type or anyone, id be interested in them if there in good nick but hearing there construction it may be hard to find an intact good set? Bubbacluby- Is Kopex the brand name or product name of this black paper/inner foil type tubing? |

I have never really taken any notice of the ducting before. Out of sight out of mind.

wooo.... looks a lot like this: https://www.aasesales.com/products/g2e-s54-8i-103189 $10 a piece would be worth having a look - though 55mm might be too big, need to measure |
