Hey guys. I always do a search before I ask a question and have seen the 10 different posts on this however they revert back to the factory diagram on most of them. I have looked at that ten times and cant see the area I have questions on.
I have all of the factory rubber hoses and are in pretty good shape. I have the larger one going from the engine to the canister. One back from the canister to the switch inside the car and then the two yellow stripe hoses coming from the switch and then through the radiator support. This is where I am at a loss. I know there is a tee (which I don't have). Where exactly on the tee do the yellow hoses go. Also can I get a generic plastic tee over the counter somewhere?
Thanks for the help!

From the T it goes to the 2 headlight motors. If you're not worried about factory correct yes any T's that fit the hose will work just fine.


Take care,

But why do I have two hoses coming into the grille area. I could understand if there was only one and then teed off to each actuator..

There are 2 hoses going into the grille area to open and close the headlight doors. One hose from the headlight switch has a green stripe on it, not both. There are 2 vacuum hose attachments on each of the actuator pods. The hose with the green stripe comes from the switch and tees off to each one of the pods, the other hose from the headlight switch also comes out and tees off to the second vacuum port on the pods. One hose opens the doors, the other closes the doors when you operate the headlight switch. The green stripe hose is specific on which side of the pod it connects to as well. I dont remember which one so hopefully someone else will chime in with that.

Ahhh. There's the answer. Guess I should have looked at pods. I thought there was only one hose attachment. Thank u!
