Guys i need some help!

I tried to replace my braided hoses for my hi spec brakes yesterday because the drives side hose has split :(

All was going great until trying to get the hoses off from the union on the copper work!

I now need a new copper line from the cylinder to the body union

Does anyone have a part number or breaking a mk3 near basildon essex or sittingbourne kent?

do you mean this kind of stuff?





just some random pics but its all the same stuff on most cars, depending how much you need you could probably buy a length of it with the connectors fitted and shape it yourself I dont think its very expensive most motorfactors should supply it :)
