Im having a bit of a head scratching session at the moment....and this one is causing me some grief...

What on earth are the flexi brake pipes from on the 2500m.....One would have thought, TR6 like the rest of the running gear, but this does not seem to be the case....the pair of front TR6 items I have are far to short...

Can anyone suggest what car the flexi hoses came from and where I can get some?....I dont really want braided stainless ones as they are stupidly expensive!

You do really want stainless braided ones! The difference they make to pedal feel is marked.
Find your local hydraulic pipe shop and take your old short pipes so they know which ends they are using and get them made up in the correct length.
