i dont think you'd be able to see any of it unless you relocate the battery

Don't have any pics since you can only see the hose that runs around the edge of the battery. I'm planning on doing a battery relocation at some point so at that time the hoses would be more visible.

A word of caution on installing the hoses, silicon hoses are more tricky then rubber to get on right. I had mine put on by someone else and ended up with a couple of leaks. I also ended up having to replace my coolant bottle due to the bottom hose being overtightened and distorting the plastic nipple. I was also getting the dreaded coolant light randomly on the dash so replacing the bottle was going to happen even without the damage.

Took awhile to chase down all the gremlins but the hoses are now leak free.
