mine was 305cm with male ends.

this was for a 4 pot with rear drums and was routed round the fuel tank.

Hi, I have to do mine as well including the two after the 'T' piece. I don't suppose you know what size the male end fittings are (M10?) and bore of the pipe?

You can buy the pipe from the dealers, its the correct length with both fittings and only costs about £8

But you will need a bending tool as it comes in a straight length

Thanks very much for the advice. Have been to the dealers today and ordered the pipes, 5 in total (£24 - £8 for the long one) and have a pipe bender on order as well. Looking forward to getting my hands dirty at the weekend as I have the fuel tank to change as well as all rear brake components.

It is highly advisable to replace the fuel lines at the same time as doing the brake pipes.

8mm copper microbore is available from B&Q and is ideal for this job.
