i'm replacing the radiator in my E36 with an aluminum PWR. so i decided to change all the hoses too, which leads me to my question.....is there a shortcut or trick to replacing the 4 way hose that leads to the firewall? i cant seem to figure it out. please direct me to a link or if some of you know how its done, please fill me in. the only trouble i'm having is with the one end that goes to the firewall under the intake manifold.
any input is much appreciated.

i have the PWR 40mm radiator and had fitment issues so be fore-warned.
try http://www.bakerprecision.com/ they can custom make you anything. i wished i had done the silicon hoses when i replaced my radiator.

fitment issues is right!! the top right hose isnt long enuff. it seems the radiator inlet is about 1" wider than stock and the stock hose is too short. i'm going to try the silicone hoses....hopefully they work.
that website is very informative, but does not have a rightup on radiator hose install.
