As stated above.

I asked the local 914 mechanic about installing new brake hoses. He wasn't sure if stock 914 rubber or SS braided would work since I had BMW front calipers.
For those that have BMW calipers, what have you installed for your brake hoses? I would like to get some of the SS braided but would hate to buy then find out there is a compatibility problem.

Thanks for your help.

Yes, actually it has nothing to do with the flex line. BTW: This caliper is mounted on the wrong side..

Is this from a Volvo? I remember Volvos having that dual brake line setup, but I don't remember any BMW's like that.
