Heater hose connecting part

[swaq]

Anyone know where I can get this part that the heater hoses go into? Part of mine broke off inside the hose so I'd rather get a new part than just clamp it back up and hope for the best. See third picture for location.

Quite annoying to have a cloud of coolant steam coming out from under the hood after I came home from work today... Made quite a puddle too.

Unless you go with the 90's Corolla/Geo valve I'm afraid you're stuck buying the entire assembly. Not that the other valve doesn't work because it does. I've had one on my car for several years.

Do you know the part number of the entire assembly?

I do not but it's easy enough to find in the online EPC. It's gonna be spendy though. If you want to go the other way:

Or get one from Toyota. Remove and toss the bracket and actuator on it, and swap the lever over from your old valve. The new valve has mounting holes on both sides so it'll orient correctly to the old bracket. The ports are also a little larger but fit the hoses fine.

Thanks. Looks like the part number is 87240-14140. $125-140ish.
