The three hoses associated with the Pierburg 2e2 carburetor are available as a set (cheaper than buying individually) from B and B Components, manufactured by Topran. See,
These are great if you have 10mm spigots on your autochoke and waxstat but are a tight fit if you have the 12mm variety.
Another option might be to obtain the correct internal diameter heater hose and use that if the bend radii do not have to be too severe. You can also get heater hose with a wire tracer which is supposed to be more readily bendable without closing up. It's horrible stuff to work with and although I bought some recently for another of my classics I quickly abandoned that plan and stuck with genuine OEM, which may also be an option through VW Heritage.
Not sure on the size of my wax stat sticky out bits but my 2B5 looks very close to the 2E2, if they are a tight fit then all the better, I'll take a chance.
I've been looking for days and could only find one from NK Automotive, none of the Heritage parts match the OEM part numbers unfortunately so was hesitant.
Save me a few quid too as you say. Owe you a pint Sir!

OK, but be aware they are for a different engine/carb so might not fit. You could do well to contact the supplier and see what they recommend. At least arrange to be able to return them if they are no good.
