I see Samco makes a set for the SX 180 with the CA18DET 1.8L engine and the picture shows hoses that look a lot like the 240's.

Could those fit?

What's better about these silicone hoses?

There are no Koyo hoses, only radiators.

No matter, I'll just buy OEM or replacements. Thanks anyway.

koyo doesn't make radiator hoses. most companies don't cause most people realize that rubber works fine
