I called a MB dealer and they did not have any, advance auto parts didn't know what I was talking about.

Hi
I bought mine at Autozone. Just take a piece in and show them. Any parts store should have it - it not just an MB item.

What's hard to come by are the 3 & 4 way connectors. But even with those many parts stores have plastic Ts etc that can be adapted.

You don't want to get hose & fittings from the junkyard anyway - they deteriorate with heat & age
Good Luck,
Joseph
