Re: where would i get new power steering pipes
Which section of pipe do you mean precisely? There are different sections around the engine bay.

Am I a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Well that depends on how much I've had to drink...

If you know someone who makes up hydraulic hoses you could do what i have done and put a compresson fitting on the end with the cooler. I havent done it with the other pipe coming from the pump but I may have to if it starts to leak.

The reason I needed new ones, is because now that ive removed the battery tray support and moved the powersteering bottle, the old pipes and hoses looked very out of place bending around things that were no longer there.
Compression Fitting added so that I can attach the new hose...
New Hose...
When I fitted it into the car I decided to wrap it with the plastic as it has white writing printed on the rubber.
Just have to buy a bit of hose today for the low pressure side to finish it off...
