Yeah, crawl under, past the front skid plate, reach around where light does not get, and you have it. A rubber strip should be well in your way. While you're way under there, its the perfect place for the glycol stream to nail you in the eyes.
Yeah, I'm a bit whiney. I'll try to provide a picture.
the larger of the 2 hoses needs to be replaced on my VX. I thought I was getting spatters from around the top clamp, but it looks like the radiator has a pinhole leak somewhere and the fan pulls it up and baptises the engine compartment. Sigh.
Do not get your hoses from AutoZone. The small hose is wrong (I am sure they pulled the right part) it's a little too long and not bent enough, so the hose kinks.
I was so pissed, I put the old one back on and never replaced the other one.
