You can just re use your existing rear hoses, but i think it is better to replace everything.  :happy2:

Are you meaning the rear caliper? Or the rear hoses on the front caliper?

^^^^That's what I meant  :signLOL:

Gotcha. So if you buy the HEL lines, buy front and rears?

if you are not putting the he flexi on the rear the ones on your car will fit ok--when doing the front you can put the hel flexi on or the normal one like i did

Okay cool so i don't need to order the HEL small rear hoses for the front caliper I can use the ones on my standard set up, thanks mate makes sense now haha. I have ordered front braided lines anyway just not the other hose for the front set up :happy2:

How hard did you find the set up to fit?

Haven't order S3 rear brakes yet as none up for sale so I'll keep my eyes peeled for some once I've got the fronts on with all the other parts I've got clogging up our house  :signLOL:

only difficult part is getting to the rear carrier bolts if you haven't got the use of a ramp

My friend has a garage in Crawley so I'll be heading there after work one night this week to get them fitted a long with my Coilovers  :happy2: i just paid £70 for front braided lines, 2 litres of performance fluid and guaranteed delivery for Tuesday. Not bad I don't think.
