I love bugs, the VW ones. I had a souped up bug convertible, a Karmon Ghia convertible and a hot rod hippie window van, all long gone.
Your taste in cars matches that of regs :chefs kiss:
 
I have had 3 of these short stainless steel braided hoses on my first stages to connect to wireless transmitters for over a year now. No fraying, no issues with rubbing or anything else. I had a relatively new 6in rubber hose pop a leak and it is a known issue for short rubber hoses - thus stainless steel wrapped. This is what DGX recommends now for short high pressure hoses.
 
This has appeared in china for half a year now, it is manufactured by WMD, well-known OEM factory.
I think it's meant for commercial diving.

This may be an acceptable use, not handled a lot and pretty much out of the way.
 
Brush some 50-50 water-phosphoic in there
I also tried to let gravity "seep in" some of that into the threads; worked out nicely -- and that was definatly a plumbing hose
