Radiator Hose, Black Heater Hose, Red Battery Cable

The battery cables bring your battery to life, giving your model that realistic look that most modelers want to achieve with their plastic models. The heater hoses can also be used for radiator hoses as they are more to scale for that purpose unless you use them for heater hoses on larger scale models. They can easily be glued on with epoxy or super/krazy glue and bring life to your model. I find no cons to these items. They are easily formed with the metal wire/s inside the rubber casings. I highly recommend these items to bring that realistic look to your model.

The Radiator Hose is just a regular electrical wire... The battery cables is different gauges.

With a slight amount of care, (& patience), these products can quite effectively be used to simulate the cables & hoses normally found under the hood.
