How much for a set of front and rears on a 95 valver along with any nuts and bolts required? If I am gonna do it all I may as well replace all nuts and bolts and washers etc. Yes I am that anal about it hahahaha

Hi mate

They shoud be twice the length of what they are.

Not happy.

Hi sorry you have had an issue.

 

But, the lines supplied are the same length as standard just with a mk4 type fitting on the end.

They just replace the last section if flexi hose, from the caliper to the first join.

 

Plenty of others have fitted them and commented on how well the rears fit and the quality including John Mitchell racing, they even feature in Riley write up which is on the volksdevile site and linked to a number of others.

Well the ones on there already have the lines coming from the top and the ones I want to put on have the lines coming from the bottom.

Can I change them for longer ones??

Thanks Johnny

So the ones you are fitting are totally different then??

 

Afaik as standard they go to the top, and the handbrake cable goes to the bottom.

 

Look at the pictures on page 87 of Riley's epic build thread, then can you edit your post from earlier today as there is actually nothing wrong with the lines it's down to what your fitting which I'm not exactly sure us what!!

 

Also look here for further images

I can get you a new set of lines made up yes but need to know what length you want the I can get a price for them

Ok so I've tired to get to the bottom of why "I" thought these where to short and I think I've been sold the wrong caliper. (Maybe passat ones)

So I'm holding my hands up and saying SORRY I got it wrong. Hope I haven't upset anyone.

Not that I really did anything wrong.

Will be keeping these lines for when Ido get the right ones cause they look spot on.

Thanks Johnny

Swampy has a poor name amongst some on here. Make your own decisions though.

Totally agree mate just because I had a bad experience well 2 doesn't mean all bad and I'm not being sarcastic just want to let other's know they may have issue's.
