Fuel line "clear blue urethane"

Any body that can tell me where I can buy "clear blue urethane" fuel line in Cape Town area.

During pre-fight discovered fuel and oil pipes cracking on the ends.
Decided to replace all my rubber pipes, oil and fuel with this type (clear blue urethane) that I saw on couple of trikes .

Re: Aquilla PAX 4 point harness... any ideas?

I bought the top 2 shoulder straps online from a car supplier, and it then slides on both ends at the bottom, jaco

Ps - the clip strap between the shoulder straps was added later and prevent it shifting off, especially if the person is small.

Wargame - thanks but on the eastern boundary you don't have much of a chose because you are channelled between mountain and the boundary and have to evade FAP38 (the armoury)
