The OE style clamps are the crimp style which require those ear crimp pliers or whatever the hell theyre called. You can also use band it style clamps which require a separate winding tool. Both tools are on Amazon for around $20 or less. Hose clamps are too wide and you won't have uniform compression around the groove. And for god sakes, don't use zip ties.
