BMW supply this by the meter. Thus ordering two will get you one long 2 meter hose. Part number 16 12 1 180 409

or just go to a local motor factors & buy it from there, there's no difference in it at all.
if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.

There is a difference Steve, the quality of this stuff varies more now than it ever has, thanks to china....
"Standard fuel hose" says to me that it is not suitable for fuel injection systems
Dont skimp on parts that could result in injury/death/total loss
