Where are people getting hose clamps for their vacuum and boost lines? I went to the dealer today and they didn't have them. Closest thing she had was a fuel line clamp which is of course too big. I'm talking about the tiny clamps that hold the sections of rubber line onto the mercedes vacumm lines. I broke a vacuum line last night and wanted to patch it with a piece of the rubber stuff held in place with a couple clamps. Seems like that shoudl work but can't find hose clamps that small anywhere.... apprecaite any tips. Thanks.

If you use the proper size vacuum hose, you should not need clamps.

I've heard that about the vacuum side... is it also true for the boost lines? Many of those seem to come from the factory with clamps so I figured the must be needed for that side.....

Boost lines need clamps.

Little zippy ties should work if you really need small clamps.
