It's the ID you need, not the OD. I think they will be 6mm but it's worth taking one off to measure them.
Whatever you do, don't use the yellow seethrough tygon chemical resistant hose as it's not resistant to brake fluid and wheeps (looks nice though)

It's 10mm od, about 11 once it's stretched over the barb.

Demon tweeks do them for £0.72 each, or you can buy it with hose

Ok, I finally have some clips and will replace the hoses too. Any idea on the ID of the hose? Is it 6mm?
Ta.
