Is it the passenger side that is giving you problems? I know there have been a few posting they have had issues with I believe that side fitting....and the other side installs without issue. I think they resolved it by trimming it some. If you do a search you should be able to find a few threads on it.

How do you trim such a thick hose and not having it end up looking like a**? I'm having trouble on the drivers side. The hoses are way stiff. I like the quality and want to get them in properly and clean.

Trim with a razor blade.

Warm the hoses up a bit by leaving them in the sun for a little while... or use a hair dryer.
