Radiator Hoses alternative parts

Hi guys,

I have Chevy Aveo 2012 1.6 ecotec engine 5MT and mechanic found the source of coolant leak. He will change the thermostat but also the hoses that are going from thermostat to radiator need to be changed. Right now one hose is original but needs to be changed and other one is a makeshift hose (previous owner probably installed it) which does not fit well on the thermostat side and coolant leaks.
I cannot find anywhere these original hoses (only in Russia and Brazil). Is there any alternative for these hoses?
OEM numbers for my car are 96958217 and 96958210.
Here is a picture of hoses:

Hi mate,

Thanks, but unfortunately it cannot be shipped to Serbia (Europe).

Unfortunate thing for this car in Europe is that it was quickly discontinued by Opel (sold till 2014), because it was fair quality car but cheaper than Opel. And some of the parts like these hoses are impossible to find. There are alot of spare parts in Russia but they do not do international deliveries.

No sweat Mitke93, I will take another look on the web.
I know that the Rad. hose had some more vendors that were listed.
You may need to have Custom made hoses ordered.
I will reply later today.

Thanks again for the effort to help. I found two hoses that are for my Aveo but for automatic transmision and i can order them to be delivered to Serbia. OEM numbers are 96958206 and 96958214. I could not find anywhere what is the difference between Rad hoses for MT and AT and if the ones for AT can fit my car.

I have a URL for the 96958206: https://burjauto.com/product/9695821...//oeautoparts-

Or: kedr.com/parts/GENERAL%20MOTORS/96958214?source=related_products

However the 96958206 does not have Aveo listed as a compatable unit.
Would think that it is not the right number.
