I have a 2006 Trail Lite Motor Home with 54,000 miles. I decided to buy new radiator hoses and carry them with just in case. I went to Oemy's website for part numbers. W0000218 & W0000219, also NAPA #'s 8441 & 9058.
I called a NAPA dealer and got prices for both $51.58. There was a $10.00 shipping charge for one hose that he didn't have in stock and had to be shipped in from California.
I then called 2 Chevrolet W/H dealers in the Phoenix area. One was $141.00 & the other was $139.00 for the 2 hoses. I asked the parts guy if they where gold plated. He said they where W/H parts and they cost more.
I think I will buy the NAPA hoses and bring them home and make sure they are the correct shapes.

I would definitely go with the Napa hoses which are made by Wix, which probably so are the chevrolet parts
