    brake hoses

    Bought some new front brake hoses from ECP but they seem to be about 10mm shorter than the ones currently on there? I seem to remember this coming up before, whats the crack with these, they ok or do we need slightly longer?

    I know with the Goodridge ones it was recommended to buy the 19 16v ones (which is what I then fitted to my car) as they were longer whereas the ones listed as 'Clio 16v/Williams' were too short for a Williams widetrack. Not sure whether the ECP ones follow the same pattern?
