Want to replace some under the floor/glovebox hoses and wondering if anyone has tried just regular hose on roll...if so what size/diameter.

Search didn't turn up much here.

I don't know the size right off hand-- I can check when I get to the shop later.

but given how the hoses are routed, you're going to need a bunch of "containment" to keep the loosey-goosey universal stuff in place.

I know the OEM stuff is speedy, but it just fits so, so nice... but upgrade ALL the clamps.

I re-plumbed a GT200 with generic radiator and heater hoses a couple of years ago.

I took the old hoses in to few different auto parts stores to match them up for length and i.d., but it was very doable. Sorry I didn't document at the time.

Good luck.
