2008 GT.
I moved my P/S reservoir to a bracket on the front of the valve cover, ala the 2010 GT (and GT500s). The smaller rubber line to the reservoir comes stock long enough to reach this new location. Unfortunately, it had been cut shorter by the previous owner and would not reach. I extended it, but I have had a hell of a time with getting a 3/8" connector and worm clamps to not "seep" where I mated two 3/8" hoses together and extended it.
So, thinking I should just replace the whole line and be done with it. It's a 3/8" rubber hose from the reservoir and connected to a longer metal line . . . perhaps called a "cooler" line? Anyway, the metal section goes across the front of the vehicle and makes a u-turn and comes back. Thinking it's there to get airflow and keep the fluid cool.
I can't find the part number (or even confirm the name of it) to save my life. I *think* it will be the same for all 3Vs, but I guess there is a chance the 2010 has a longer rubber hose at the end. Would need that one, if so.
