@ A4NUT
i can make my own, i thought for a fiver for OEM wasnt worth getting flaring tool from cousins house and running round to get pipe etc ,
back to the steel braided were you on about doing them in one piece from the solid brake pipe to the caliper ?ie removing the rubber flexi ?
thx

Yes there very easy to make but the oem ones are steel and are hard to bend if not right copper i think is best with stainless unions dont rust and easy to shape, Yes remove the rubber flexi and replace as under braking these expand. Stainless steel braided dont expand so give you a firmer pedal on my old golf i changed all of the rubber hoses to braided and this made a huge difference.
