How different are the coolant hoses between a 4th and a 5th gen?
Anyone done a side by side comparsion or tried the other type on their lude?

I never understand why they're always listed as only for one or the other. Misimoto for instance list one for the 5th gen, but don't do one for the 4th at all
Cheers though guys

Just done a parts number check on lings and they are different (although close)
4th gen...
PFKL405474 HOSE, WATER UPPER £25.16 (€28.68) ($40.26)
PFKL405759 HOSE, WATER LOWER £45.22 (€51.55) ($72.35)
5th gen...
PFKL405475 HOSE, WATER UPPER £29.41 (€33.53) ($47.06)
PFKL405775 HOSE, WATER LOWER £44.12 (€50.30) ($70.59)
Honda aren't ones to use differnent part numbers for parts that are otherwise identical.
I wonder if the reach is subtley different? Is the engine maybe positioned further back on one of them?

Nope, they only list sets for 4th gens...

I'm yet to ever see a set labeled 92-01 Prelude.
... But they look so simular!
